According to the records found and examined by Norris H. Turk,
the Turk family was one of the earliest in that part of Virginia
which became Augusta County in 1738. In that year, Augusta was
set off from Orange County, but the records show the Turk name
recorded in Orange County as early as 1736. Robert proved his
and his family's importation, that is they paid their own way to
the colony of Virginia - February 28, 1739, Orange County Order
Book 11, page 110. "Robert Turk, Margaret, Jane, John, Ann,
Thomas, James, William." (Tinkling Spring ,page 429.) The Orange
County Order Book more fully states that "Robert Turk made oath
that that he imported himself, Margaret, Jane, John, Ann,
Thomas, James and William, from Ireland to Phily and thence unto
this colony."
The Turk family was associated with the Tinkling Spring Church
from the beginning. (Wilson, page 419.) We find baptisms by the
Rev. John Craig for John Turk and Thomas Turk on page 482; John
Turk, June 9, 1745; Robert, April 19, 1741; Thomas Turk, no date
directly appear sunder his name; Jean, April 9, 1746. Dr. Wilson
tells us that the Turks were large men.
The will of Robert Turk is found in Augusta Co., VA Will Book 5,
page 17, dated September 24, 1772, proved November 17, 1772.
Robert Turk left all his property to Thomas Turk, and one
shilling to his son James Turk. The witnesses were Charles Teas,
Thomas Turk, Jr., and Elizabeth Gleaves. Proved 13 Nov 1772 by
Teas and Turk. Thomas Turk qualified with John Madison, Jr.,

SETTLEMENT IN VIRGINIA. Rosslyn, VA: The Commonwealth Printing
Co., 1912. Will Book 5, page 17.
In Augusta Co., VA Court Judgement of November 1747, reveals the
spirit of the day in forcing payment of subscriptions made for
the support of Pastor and meeting house. Robert Turk pledged one
pound per year, from 1741-1746, but for some reason he did not
pay this pledge. The Pastor took him to court to force payment,
which he finally paid. Chalkley, Lyman. CHRONICALES OF THE
SCOTCH-IRISH SETTLEMENT IN VIRGINIA, Vol. 1. Rosslyne, VA: The
Commonwealth Printing Co., 1912 .Page 297.
Samuel Gay and Robert Turk probably resided in Lancaster, PA,
since on December 4, 1744, they gave their bond to James McCune
of Salisbury township in that county. The Obligators of this
bond removed to Augusta Co., VA prior to 1750.
On January 8, 1746, James Sharp was a resident of Chester Co.,
PA and Andrew McClure executed his bond to him on that date,
which wa sassigned to Robert Turk on June 28, 1746, by James
Sharp. (Virginia Historical Magazine, Vol. XXXI.)

Page 95. "Robert Turk was careful with the handling of his
funds. When purchasing lands from William Beverley on South
River below Waynesboro ,he required Beverley to post an 80 pound
bond that the title to th eland was good. In the handling of his
subscription to Tinkling Spring he was more than careful. His
pledge of 1 pound per year to th esupport of Mr. Craig remained
unpaid from 1741 through 1746. In 1747 the Tinkling Spring
Commissioners took Mr. Turk into court and produced as evidence
the agreement between the congregation and the commissioners to
force the payment of Mr. Turk's subscription of 6 pounds."
