TURNER, Luther, s. of Prince and Rebecca, [born] Mar. 30, 1775.
[Note: this date is 8 months before the recorded marriage date of the parents. While it seems possible that it was misrecorded, there being plenty of room to move it back a year, the death date does work out to a birth in 1775, so further research would be necessary to figure out if both marriage and birth dates are correct, or if something else is going on.]

The Harvard VRs, p. 221, also list the intentions of Luther Turner and Sally Robbins in Nov. 1796. It appears Sally died before the marriage happened, as p. 298 shows the death of "Sally Robins", a. 18 y. 5 m., d/o Capt. Benjamin and Lydia, on 25 May 1797. Source:Nourse, Henry S. History of the Town of Harvard, Massachusetts, p. 535, records the death on the same day as "Sally Robbins, 19 y. maiden, consumption".
