cturtle is long since EOL'd. Most repositories still have the cturtle tags from that era: https://github.com/ros/ros_comm/releases/tag/cturtle But there's no supported way for collect all the sources. You are going to have to do some digging and work to revive a cturtle build.

Though we do still have many of the debian packages available. If you want to revive a specific node I'd recommend starting with the binary packages and then making a small overlay workspace with the minimal source that you need for your rebuild.

Overall I'd strongly suggest that you consider trying to use a more modern version of ROS and Ubuntu. Depending on how much you need to do, moving forward may be less work than trying to revive a system that's ~7 years out of date. I suspect you'll find a lot of resources are now unavailable for that machine.
