His first marriage, in 1886, was to Ella, daughter of Charles James Thornton, of Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Turner remarried, in 1892, to Jane Elizabeth, only daughter of Admiral Sir Alexander Buller.
Alexander was awarded the Victoria Cross for gallantry while serving with the Royal Berkshire Regiment during the Battle of Loos in September 1915 in World War I.
Victor was awarded his Victoria Cross for gallantry while serving with the Rifle Brigade during the Second Battle of El Alamein in World War II, when he was the Commanding Officer (CO) of his regiment's 2nd Battalion.
During the action, one of the 6-pounder guns was left with only one officer and a sergeant, so Colonel Turner joined them as loader, and between them they destroyed another five tanks.
