Happy Birthday Nancy Hoblit Turner

Born July 18, 1821 in Clinton County, Ohio was Nancy Hoblit, who was my Great, Great, Great, Great Grandmother.

She was married April 14, 1836 in McClean, Illinois to Spencer D. Turner. They had twelve children including their oldest, Margaret Jane, who was born January 8, 1838 at Adams, DeWitte County, Illinois.

Nancy died April 20, 1900 at Wapella, Illinois and is buried there.

Nancy and Spencer's photos were sent to me by Pearl Judd Turner who found my website and was kind enough to share her information with me. Pearl is a Great Granddaughter of Margaret Jane.
