Adam Turner (1808-1854) born in Ohio, died in Illinois

I am looking for any information on my ancestor Adam Turner. The 1850 census shows him as 42 yrs. of age, born in Ohio. He died in 1854 leaving a widow and young children.

He married Elizabeth Biggs Troxell in 1836 in Hancock Co. Indiana. They moved to Jo Daviess Co., Illinois in 1840 where he was engaged in lead mining. They had the following children:

George E., b. 1838

Jonah W., b. 1840

Margery A., b. 1841

Benjamin Biggs, b. 1848

Mary J., b. 1851

Almeda J. (aka Alice J) b. 1854

I am looking for parents and siblings of Adam Turner, and will share information with any descendants.
