The third Turner sibling, born April 4 1870 in Jackson CA.
He married Mary Elizabeth "Marie" Embury on December 18, 1901, in Berkeley CA. She was born in 1878 in California, and was about 8 years younger than him. In 1900 she was living with her family in Berkeley, and working as a teacher.
Henry and Marie had three children, Marie Adeline Turner (b. 1906, m. Wesley Ernest Schreiber, d. 1991); Phyllis Embury Turner (b. 1910, m. Walter Ellsworth LaPlante, d. 1985), and Henry Mann Turner Jr. (b. 1912, m. Cecile Juliet DeLeon, d. 1966).
In 1910, ages 40 and 32, they were living in Berkeley. Henry's profession is listed as something that looks like "Tile-setter." Also living with them was Marie's brother Phillip A. Embury, age 18, b. California, working as a teacher. In 1920 they still lived in Berkeley, renting at 1544 Milvia Ct. He was working as a carpenter for the railroad, and Phillip still lived with them. In 1930 they owned their home at 1712 Jaynes(?), and he was working as a janitor. The three children, ages 23, 19, and 17, still lived with them, the older two working as a clerk and as a typist, both at insurance company(s).
Marie died June 15, 1943, in Berkeley CA. Henry Sr. died October 29, 1957, in Oakland CA.
Nelson Seymour Trowbridge and Adeline Martha Mann Turner were cousins whose families moved to Jackson CA in the gold rush. They grew up and had six children each. Two of their kids married each other and became my great grandparents. You can contact me at mlwilson at ucsc dot edu.
