Turner Hamilton Holt

Reverend Turner Hamilton Holt (1894–1960) was an American clergyman born on March 24, 1894, in Oakley, Overton County, Tennessee, to Charles Gray Holt. Primarily known as a religious figure, Holt is linked to UAP/UFO lore through claims of a pre-World War II 'creature' retrieval. He reportedly confided to his eldest daughter in the early 1940s—before widespread UFO sightings—about recovering four alien bodies, suggesting early extraterrestrial contact or incident. No verified military or government role is documented, and details remain anecdotal without primary corroboration. No notable publications or official testimony from Holt exist in public records. His story appears in fringe UFO literature but lacks mainstream validation.
