My husband is a Turnbull. I am trying to search his family tree. Our 2nd ggfather James Turnbull 1821-1914 was a son of Robert Turnbull 1799-1802?? Some say he was born in Philadelphia, some say Scotland, Some say Born At Sea. I have not seen a record of his birth. I think his father Robert William/William Robert was born in Scotland, (no Birth Record), he married Elizabeth in England, no last name. I can't go any farther back until I find the correct info.
Robert Sr. died in 1808 in Philadelphia from fever. Robert Jr. lived in Ohio. He married Sicelia Wolfcale May 1, 1820. Children from this marriage were John, 1820, James 1821, Cyrus 182?, Robert 1826, Lewis. Robert re-married after the death of Sicelia.
Robert married Ann Margaret Ormsby in 1834. They had several children.
I am stumped at this time. Does anyone have any records of William Robert birth and where he was born and also where and when Robert Jr. was born? I would appreciate any info on this family.
