Origin of surname Turbay
Can anyone confirm that my surname Turbay has his origin in the english crusaders originals from the town Tor-bay, that they stay in the middle east and never came back to England? Are this surname related in any way to surname Turvey? This story was told to me by a relative of mine that lives in USA. I am a 47 male living in Mexico, my grandfather came from Lebanon and my family are the only one with this name in Mexico. Relatives of my grandfather arrives to Colombia where a much more numerous Turbay relatives live. Thanks to anyone that can provide a hint.

I am Turkish and searching about murder of Diana Turbay because the surname came to me so familiar. The reason is i am Turkish and the surname is very Turkic name. When I searched about Diana Turbay, i found that she is Lebanon origin person and it is Ottoman Empire land until begining the 20th century. There is no evidence in my reply but i just want to add a consideration.
