-H-
5th Ggrandfather

Thomas Turney ("the Turncoat")
Parents: Thomas Turney and Martha Lyon
Born 2 Mar 1754 Fairfield Township, Fairfield, Connecticut
Thomas was referred to as a "Turncoat" because he fled to Long Island, New York to join the Loyalists (those loyal to the English crown) in 1776.  He was said to have 'joined the enemy' (18 May 1781 Fairfield Town Records) and the fact he was not mentioned in his father's will means he was in disfavor. He moved to New Brunswick, Canada in 1783 as a loyalist. He first settled on the Kennebecasis River in Kings County, then in 1787 received a land grant at Keswick, Douglas Parish, York County. In 1797 he purchased land at Swan Creek, Burton Parish, Sunbury County.
Married Amy Coy 15 Nov 1792 Gagetown, Queens, New Brunswick, Canada
Died 23 Mar 1840 Sunbury, New Brunswick, Canada
