Julius and Ethel married on at Batholomew's church on Clyde Road, in Dublin. The Stoneys were a Protestant Anglo-Irish gentry family from both County Tipperary and County Longford, while Ethel herself had spent much of her childhood in County Clare. Turing's mother, Julius's wife, was Ethel Sara Turing ( née Stoney 1881–1976), daughter of Edward Waller Stoney, chief engineer of the Madras Railways. Turing's father was the son of a clergyman, the Rev. John Robert Turing, from a Scottish family of merchants that had been based in the Netherlands and included a baronet. Turing was born in Maida Vale, London, while his father, Julius Mathison Turing (1873–1947), was on leave from his position with the Indian Civil Service (ICS) of the British Raj government at Chatrapur, then in the Madras Presidency and presently in Odisha state, in India.
