Exsuperius Weston Turnor (1831–1909) was a British land agent. ==Biography== Born Abbot's Bromley, Staffordshire 1831 and died Stafford 1909. Son of Michael Turnor, Land Agent to the Lane Family in King's Bromley, and Mary (née. Armishaw) married Rugeley 29 September 1828. On the basis that the 1851 Census shows his brothers George and William working as assistants to their father, it can be assumed that Turnor also first worked as an assistant to Michael Turnor on the Lane Family Estate. Turnor does not appear in the 1841 Census, but the 1851 Census lists him as “Exnperins Wilton Wilton”, a twenty-year-old ‘Landsurveyor Clerk’ at Pool Park, Bodyngharad Ucha, Llanfwrog, Denbighshire. His relationship to the head of the household, Edward Jones, is given as nephew. Also listed in the same household is Hannah Turnor, sister-in-law to Edward Jones and the probable widow of Richard Turnor, Park Keeper at Sedgley. Denbighshire and parts of Staffordshire are linked via the Bagot family. Sir William Bagot, 6th Baronet, represented Staffordshire in Parliament as a Tory from 1754 to 1780. His grandson, the third Baron and also named William, sat as Conservative Member of Parliament for Denbighshire. It is probably through the Bagot family that Turnor came to be employed at Bodyngharad Ucha, and also where a possible family link exists with Henry Turnor, Park Keeper at Bagot's Bromley in the 1861 and 1871 Census returns. By 1871, Turnor was living back with his parents at 48 Brereton Road, Brereton, Rugeley. In the Census for that year, Turnor’s occupation was given as ‘Estate Agent’, the same as given for his father Michael, despite the latter now being 79 years of age. Also still in the parents' house were surviving but still unmarried children – Frances, Lucy and William, the latter a Captain in the Army “on half pay”. Following the death of his father, Michael, in late 1871 and mother, Mary, in early 1880, Exsuperius and his sisters Fanny and Lucy stayed in the family home in Brereton through the 1881 Census. By the time of the 1891 Census, he was living with his sister Lucy and brother William, at The Green, Castle Church, Stafford, and his occupation was still that of Land Agent. The situation remained the same for the 1901 Census. Exsuperius Weston Turnor died in Stafford in 1909, his sister Lucy died (probably) in Dudley in 1913, and his brother William in Stafford in 1916. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Exsuperius Weston Turnor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
