Grand Rapids Press June 13, 1903
The will of Aaron B. Turner has been filed in the probate court together with 
a petition that it be admitted into probate. The petition estimates the value 
of the estate at $15,000, $10,000 real and $5,000 personal.
The original will is dated December 5, 1891, and to it, there is attached a 
codicil dated April 25, 1893. The original will makes a provision for the 
divison of the shares of the A.B. Turner company among the children and 
cancels notes by Willard S. Turner and Lily E. Milmine for the purchase of 
stock in the company. The codicil made because of the death among the members 
of the family, provides that the shares of the stock should be divided equally 
among the four surviving children. To the widow is given the homestead on 
Shelton street as well as the residue of the entire estate, but Mrs. Turner 
having died since the will was made, her shares will revert to the other heirs.

Additional Comments:
Aaron was the son of Isaac and Eunice (Bullis) Turner.

Aaron Beaman Turner was the publisher of the Grand Rapids Eagle, former 
Postmaster of Grand Rapids and active in politics. His daughter, Amelia, wife 
of Frank Godfrey, and his wife, Sally nee Sibley, preceeded him in death. The 
family is interred in the Fulton Street Cemetery.
