Talk:John Turner (fur trapper)

Parents and Date of Birth
I seriously doubt the uncited info in the article is correct. If this family tree is correct, the John Turner is definitely not the same one as the article. I think the John Turner in the article was probably born at least ten years earlier, as he was called "old" John Turner at the time of his death in 1847. If he was born in 1797, that would have made him 50 at the time. Also, I can find no documentation of his existence prior to 1827, when he went to California with Jedediah Smith. The same source that called him "old" also said he started in the fur trade in 1823, but I can't find him mentioned anywhere from 1823 until 1827. Lynn (SLW) (talk) 12:49, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
