Turner's Family Tree
As explained elsewhere, Turner never married but had children with Sarah Danby, widow of the musician John Danby. Gordon Hardwick has created a family tree of Turner using Ancestry.com. Here are 2 extracts, one showing Turner's immediate forebears and one showing his immediate descendants:
These are screenshots of the Ancestry.com tree for Joseph_Mallord_William_Turner. It is publicly available so if you subscribe to Ancestry feel free to browse it. The tree extends quite a bit further in both directions and is interactive, so by clicking on a person one can see immediately biographical details including digitised public records.
The green markers above some of the individuals show where Ancestry's software has identified hints for further investigation. These are not always accurate and should be treated with care!
