Person:Philip Turner (8)

Philip Turner was baptised on 3rd November 1762 at Heckington in Lincolnshire, son of Elizabeth Turner, formerly Gray, and her husband Philip Turner, a farmer.

Philip has yet to be traced after his baptism. He is not named in his father's will, written in 1803, which may indicate that he had died before then. There was a "Philip Turner Labourer" buried at Heckington on 1st September 1773, although it seems unlikely that a ten year old boy would be described simply as a labourer.
