What is recorded here
William Turner is a birthplace in Kilmallock, County Limerick, Ireland. Perhaps the fields still hold the shape of a boy running toward America. Maybe his footsteps left marks no plow can erase. Imagine the distance between Irish soil and American cathedrals measured in one life.
Why this person is known: American Roman Catholic bishop (1871-1936)
