- Bishop Gregg says : "Mr. Turbeville [Rev. William, d 1810] had no children. Several brothers came with him, of whom some diescendants are now to be found in Marion." These were the foundation and origin of the Turbeville family in Marion. Of these, old William Turbeville, then in the prime of life, sixty years ago, lived in the neighborhood of Ebenezer Methodist Church, within the bounds of what was then called the Cross Roads Beat Company-a military division. The writer remembers very distinctly a very spirited contest for the Captaincy of the Cross Roads Beat Company, in 1840 or early '41, between William Turbeville and W. H. Moody. The respective candidates and their friends worked for their favorites as zealously as if the election had involved the safety of the State or an income of thousands of dollars. The military spirit of the State, in those times, has been noted in preceding pages of this book. The result of the election was in favor of W. H. Moody by thirteen votes. There were three brothers of that generation of Turbevilles- William, Absalom and John. William, not long after the contest for the Captaincy of the Cross Roads militia company, moved down into Britton's Neck, and there died in a good old age, left a son, Asa, and one named William. Asa Turbeville is one of our most respected citizens in the Britton's Neck section. A daughter of his married J. H. Bostick, in that section, another worthy and upright man, and is doing well.
...
Recurring to the William Turbeville who ran for the Captaincy in 1840, as before stated, he left another son, named Stephen, who is one of our most worthy citizens ; lives on Buck Swamp. The wife of the late Samuel Johnson was a daughter of old "Captain" William, and is still living, but has no children. ;

!NOTE:Both Mary TURBEVILLE Johnson's Obituary and W.W. SELLERS' "A History of Marion County, SC" state that Samuel and Mary had no children, however, the 1850 shows three children, Mary, Timothy and Frances, who are not listed in 1860. Either all three of these children died in the 1850's or they were actually nieces and nephews instead, either option is possible;

I noticed that Elijah Rogers (c1805) and wife had a Timothy and Frances of similar age with them in 1860, but who were NOT with them back in 1850. It could be the same ones, but I don't know if their surname is Johnson or Rogers or if they are different people. Elijah Rogers did live in the very same area as the Johnsons, and their families intermarried around this time;
