William Henry Turner (August 30, 1877 – May 11, 1917) was a Canadian racing driver.[1]

Life[edit]

Turner was born and raised in Toronto. After marriage, while his wife and children remained in Toronto, Turner relocated to Buffalo, New York for work reasons. Although originally sending payments and visiting, eventually Turner ceased all contact with his family. He later lived in Wyoming, acting as a sales officer for the Maxwell Motor Company. He died in Denver after an illness.
