There were at least five Turley families in Virginia as early as 1716. From there descendants went to South Carolina, Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Oklahoma and elsewhere.
The Corbly-Corfman and Bachlor-Berry Families is a four part genealogy of each of the families; each part contains illustrations, bibliography, and index. This book establishes the ancestry of Earl Jackson Corbly and Ina Fay Bachlor Corbly who were married in 1927. It was written for their descendants, but is also a valuable genealogical source for each of the four family lines. Pastor John Corbly is traced from 1733 in his home in Dunshaughlin, County Meath, Ireland. Johann Philipp Korffmann is traced from 1653 in his home in Alzey-Stein Bockenheim, Germany. John Batchelor is traced from 1543 in his home in Chesham, Buckinghamshire, England. And David Berry is traced from 1630 in his home in Saggart, Leinster, County Dublin, Ireland.
