Mar 11, 1839; m. George C. Turner, Oct 14,1857, at Argyle, Wisconsin. They went to live at Mantorville, Wisconsin, where he and E. M. Britts built a flour mill. Mrs. Turner gives the following account of their experiences:
Before the mill was completed the civil war broke out and the Indians began making trouble on the frontier. People coming through from settlements west of us reported friends killed and families massacred. On the 18th of August 1861 a horseman came riding up to the gate and called out, "Be ready to flee for the Indians are within fifteen miles of us and on the warpath My husband had gone to church and left me alone with two little children, one not quite two years old and the other an infant two weeks old. My sister, Mrs. Britts, who lived in the other part of the house, helped pick up a few things for the children and we scrambled into a farm wagon and went out two miles where we found the people of the neighborhood gathered. Some of the women were so excited that they wore men's hats, some with nothing but slippers on their feet, others bareheaded and one had a bed blanket around her. One woman had three children on an ox wagon with a feather bed, half a barrel of beans and a pitchfork. My husband on his way to church heard the report and went out with other horsemen to ascertain the truth and found that the Indians were fifty instead of fifteen miles away. So we went home unmolested.
They afterwards lived in Frederickton, New Brunswick, for two years and then returned and settled at Winona, Minn. Mr. Turner d. July 9, 1884."
