This James Turpin disappeared from the Halifax Co., VA, tax lists in 1812. He and John Turpin who m. Elizabeth Carter were the only male Turpins in Halifax Co. around the time George Turpin was born. It is possible George was a son of James & Polly Smith Turpin and I am placing him with this couple as a place marker. There is little evidence of James Turpin's presence in VA and I believe that is why most researchers placed George with John. It is possible that George was John's nephew. Research continues.
