JAMES W. TURNER (Farmer, Stock-raiser, and Tobacco Grower, Post-office, Warren). Mr. Turner has been a resident of Shelby county since 1866, and has been engaged in farming pursuits during all this time. He has a place of 1860 acres, and, considering the size of his farm, is doing quite an extensive business in the stock line. He has a good grade of horses, mules, cattle, sheep, hogs, etc. However, Mr. T. makes a specialty of raising tobacco, which he finds one of the most profitable crops he can grow. Like most of the residents of Jackson township, he is a native Kentuckian, born in Garrard county in 1839. The following year his parents came to Missouri and settled in Marion county. James W. was reared in that county, and remained there until his removal to Shelby. During the years 1862 and '63 he was engaged in carrying the U. S. mail between Warren and Palmyra.In 1865 Mr. Turner was married to Miss Martha, a daughter of Paschal W. and Caroline McGleason, of Shelby county, but formerly of Kentucky. Mr. and Mrs. Turner have four children: Emmet L., Laura B., Alice V., and Sterling J.; Carrie died in infancy. He and wife are members of the Baptist Church. Mr. Turner's father, Thomas W. Turner, died in Marion county. His mother, whose maiden name was Margaret W. Tucker, is still living. They had a family of 11 children, of whom James W. was the eldest.
