Memorial# 32577984
I am trying to determine if George Walter "Wally" Turner (Find A Grave Memorial# 32577984) buried in the Berea Baptist Church Cemetery, Gaston County, N.C., is the same George Walter Turner who was my great aunt's second husband.

The two Georges match on several points: name and occupation, birth place, approximate birth year, and death year.

George 1 -- George Walter "Wally" Turner was born Sep. 4, 1868, in Franklin County, Va., and died in 1955. He was a merchant. Mr. Turner had lived in North Carolina for four years at the time of his death. (Sources: Find a Grave and N.C. death certificate.) His death certificate lists him as a widower. My aunt was still living. That may have been the family's way of expunging his second marriage. Or maybe they didn't know about it.

George 2 -- "My" George Walter Turner married Sarah Ann Gadd Hatcher, in 1921 in Raleigh County, W.Va. He was born in Franklin County, Va., around 1869. He died in 1955, according to Aunt Annie's obituary. He was a merchant. They owned and operated a boardinghouse and a grocery – G.W. Turner Grocery, in Sophia, Raleigh County. Mr. Turner was still a resident of Sophia in the 1940 census. (Sources: W.Va. marriage record, 1940 census, Annie's obituary, news articles and a photo of their store.)

Aunt Annie always referred to her second husband as "Turner." I don't know if that is an indication that they separated or not. It could have been an affectionate term.

I have been unable to find either a West Virginia death certificate or obituary for George 2.

Happened to notice when looking at Oakwood Cemetery in Martinsville, VA that Florence is listed twice. The birth and death dates you have listed do not match the dates on the grave stone. Deegraver has this person listed also and has the correct dates from the stone.

Thank you for the corrected spelling and links on the Peele memorials. The cemetery records had two LL's and I did not catch it when I photographed the graves. If they are family I would be happy to transfer.

Reamey Winn
Minter Family Cemetery
Hi Robert,
Did you create the Minter Cemetery on Greenhill Road containing over 80 graves? The latitide/longitude info is incorrect. The correct latitude is 36.74111 and the correct longitude is -79.80374. This cemetery is 9/10 mile from route 657, not 1/2 mile. I was there recently and verified this information. My grandfather Winn and one uncle are buried there. Thanks for correcting. Reamey Winn
