THOMAS BLANKS TURNER
The subject of this sketch was born a Greenville, Miss., July 29, 1868; died in Winnsoro, Texas, Jan. 21. 1934.
His last words were: ?It is sweet to know there is a place to go that is heaven.?
He was the son of Dr. R. J. and Laura Turner, and with his parents moved to Bay St. Louis when a young man; his father becoming the leading physician of that city.
He was married there to Emma Sylvester, and to them _were born two sons and one daughter:	Robt.	J.,
Thomas Blanks, and Emily?all surviving and living in Texas.
Brother Turner was well born and reared in a Christian home, joining the Methodist liijiiiufeyal Church when young, and was ever true to its vows and the principles of Christianity. For 40 years he held official relation to his church as steward and Sunday school superintendent.
He was the very embodiment of honesty and integrity. Wherever he lived he commanded the confidence and respect of his community as a business man, a citizen, and a churchman.
A prominent business man remarked: ?Winnsboro bemoans the passing pf $ man'that no one.ever heard a remark against.?
He, with his family, moved to Texas in 1911, entering the mercantile business with his son, R. J., retiring four years before his death.
