Harvey Griswold Turner (June 7, 1822 – November 22, 1893) was an American lawyer, politician, and judge.
[1] He was admitted to the bar in 1844 and quickly moved to set up a legal practice in Grafton, in Washington County.
[4] In 1850, he was elected as Washington County's representative to the Wisconsin State Senate, running on the Democratic ticket.
[5] In 1854, the Ozaukee County Democratic Party rejected the renomination of John B. Macy for Congress in Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district, and instead nominated Turner.
But the elder Turner subsequently moved to Milwaukee, after the death of his wife, and the two resumed their partnership in 1887.
[8] They had one son, William J. Turner, who also became a prominent lawyer and served as a Wisconsin circuit court judge in Milwaukee County.
