DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Agnes by comparing test results with other carriers of her ancestors' mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Agnes:
When Micajah Turner died in 1762, his heirs were the widow Agness and three children named as Lewis Turner, John Turner, and Mary Turner, all minors. Jonas Meador Jr was appointed guardian for the three Turner children. Daughter Mary later married Clement Brown as shown in the court suit, Cumberland County Virginia Chancery Court case (1788-021) Lewis Turner et al vs James Minter and wife, published by The Library of Virginia online https://www.lva.virginia.gov/chancery/case_detail.asp?CFN=049-1788-021. Plaintiffs in this case were Lewis Turner, John Turner, Clement Brown and his wife Mary (formerly Turner) all heirs of Micajah Turner deceased.
A child named Julia Ann Turner born in 1757 would have been a minor aged only 5 years when Micajah Turner died. There is no listing, guardianship, or provision made for such a child in the records. Clement Brown was still married to Mary Turner in 1785 when this Nancy (Brown) Flippen was born. The family search tree listed here as a source for Julia Ann Turner uses as its only sources references to MARY Turner Brown, not Julia Ann Turner Brown.
