Then at some point Olive marries Philip Berre; their daughter Elizabeth was born in Feb 1659/60 and they come to Somerset County.

In 1661 William Turpin was transported into the Province of Maryland by Captain Luke Gardiner of St. Mary's County. By provincial law, new settlers of Maryland were entitled to receive fifty acres of land from the Lord Proprietorship upon their settlement in Maryland. William Turpin's land allotment was assigned to Captain Luke Gardiner to pay for William's transportation to the Province. In the same year, Captain Gardiner transferred this land to James Linsey.

Per MilesFiles:
William Turpin remained on the Western Shore of Maryland for several years. In 1664, Luke Gardiner and William Turpin were witnesses to a deed in St. Mary's County. This is the only record of William's signature and shows that he wrote his own name, spelling it "William Turpine". Other records spell his name "Turpin".

Per MilesFiles:
     William later settled in Somerset County, Maryland, where he married Margaret Ivory on January 16, 1668. Margaret Ivory was the daughter of Nicholas Ivory of Northampton County, Virginia. She was born on July 7, 1654 in Hungers Parish, Virginia. Sometime before 1662, Nicholas, Margaret, and Margaret's sister, Mary were transported to Maryland. They lived in Manokin of present day, Somerset County.
     No records have been found showing the year of death of William Turpin or the settlement of his estate. However, "cattle marks" of his children were recorded in 1685 signifying that his death probably occurred around this year. In the 17th century in most area, cattle and swine were raised in groups. "Cattle marks" were used to identify the owners. These marks were recorded at the local court house.
     Soon after William Turpin's death, his widow married Miles Gray, a prominent early settler of Virginia and later Maryland. Miles Gray made gifts of both land and negroes to his step-children.
