Biography
"Captain Robert Turnbull, Sr., was an accomplished master mariner. He was born in County Durham, England, on 29 March 1803, and emigrated to Prince Edward Island sometime in the early 1820s. A young adventurer par excellence, he met, courted, and won another Yorkshire native, Isabella Severy (nee Gray), the 43-year-old widow of John Severy of Crapaud. They married on 5 August 1826, and overnight Captain Turnbull became a landowner of minor means. On 24 March 1827, a daughter, Hannah Gray, was born." [1]
