Steven was born about 1792. His wife's maiden name was Klapp
Steven is hard to track at this point. 99% of records are for Turnbull's and all of the irish are Turnbull or similar. So far there is only 1 record of S Turnbow to go by. Maybe his last name was changed by a census taker or immigration?

Robert, Please be polite. There's no need for all those exclamation marks -- they will just alienate people, and that's not helpful to anyone in this collaborative effort.
If you believe that the two Steven Turnbows in question are not the same person, please provide documentation indicating that they are not. Perhaps the birth location of one or the other is incorrect, and the spouse and child information is actually correct. Is that a possibility?
In any case, please be respectful of your collaborators.
Thanks,
Emily
One S Turnbow born in S. Carolina & one S Turnbow born in Ireland?
These are not the same person, just because someone thinks to add BR Turnbow & ME Clapp to the wrong S. Turnbow! Not a match!
