Sword of Captain Turner Linked to Bunker Hill Display
The Turners preserve a battle sword from Captain Cyrus Turner of the Massachusetts Militia who fought at Bunker Hill on June 17 1775. The weapon broke in combat and Turner later stored it at the family estate in Scituate before returning to service in the Revolutionary War. The sword has stayed in Turner's direct descendants since 1775 and is now shown in Shipes Jewelers window in Mount Dora Florida where Frances Turner Shipes holds it.
