BATTLE HYMN OF THE TAYLORS

TUNE: "Battle Hymn of the Republic." The ancient Clan of Taylor raised their standards to the sky; "Con-se-qui-tur quod-qun-gue pe-tit" was their battle cry. They loved to think and labor and were not afraid to die. The clan goes marching on!

CHORUS: Glory to the name of Taylor! Glory to the blood of Taylor! Hurrah, Hurrah, for all the Taylors! The Clan goes marching on1

Baron Ta-lia-fer-ro was our "father," so they say. He crossed the sea with William I, the hero of his day. He gave his life at Hastings and would not his trust betray. The Clan goes marching on! Ta-lia-fer-ro saved the life of Caesar, fiftr-eight (B. C. 58). Rowland was a martyr, Herbert on the King d~d wait. Being great and useful surely is a Taylor trait. The Clan goes marching on! George Taylor was a "signer" and "Zach" was the President. He whipped old Santa Anna, everything he said he meant. Simon was a minute man, to battle bravely went. The Clan goes marching on! In Kent and Worcester, Lancashire, Northumberland as well, In Scotland, , U. S. A., on mountain, plain and dell, Where English tongue is spoken-that is where the Taylors dwell. The Clan goes marching on! The Taylor Clan is mighty-nearly half a million strong. In seventy-six two thousand Taylors fought to right a wrong. Fifty towns bear Taylor names. Let's sing it loud and long, The Clan goes marching on! When danger threatened country, or a battle to be won, Or righteous causes need defenders, or work to be done, Brave Taylors were right there, and never did a Taylor run. The Clan goes marching on! Taylor sons are loyal and our daughters true and sweet. More noble sires and mothers you could never hope to meet; The stories of their deeds with pride and pleasure we repeat. The Clan goes marching on!

4 (A) INTRODUCTION

HE Taylor Family is among the forty-nine "best families" selected by the American Historical-Genealogical Society for whom the Society has published family histories during the past few years. The Taylor Family has been prominent in the British Empire and in the United States, its members having played important reiles in war and in peace. Family pride is a commendable trait and should be cultivated. All Taylors have just cause to be proud of their family history and traditions. In references No. 7 and No. 14 we find the following regarding the origin and meaning of the name Taylor: "Taylor" is derived from the well-known trade "sartor" (a cutter out of cloth; a maker of clothes). In England the trade-name became "tailor" and the surname "Taylor". Variations are: le Taliur, le Tayllour, and le Taylur. The commonness of the occupation has led to the frequency of the sur­ name, which according to the 16th report of the Reg. Gen. of 1856, stands fourth in the list of the most common family names in England and . A very ancient family of Taylors-descendants of the Norman Baron Taliaferro, whose name is a combination of the Latin "tatum" (a dart) and "ferro" (to bear)-can be traced to Kent before the 14th century. But most of the family originally took the surname from the occupation. The data in this volume is gathered from reliable sources. We have selected what we consider the most important material. Many of the daughters, and sons for whom no issue was shown, have been omitted from the pedigrees. A missing symbol indicates that a name has been omitted. Those desiring further information are advrsed to consult the volumes mentioned in the list of References. The compilers hope that, in producing this volume they are bringing to the Taylor Family information which will be of interest and value to them, and that they are rendering an important service to the public. They and their associates will be glad to give their cooperation to members of the family who are interested in having a complete genealogy of the family published. Unless otherwise plainly shown, the persons in this volume whose names are accompanied by three figures are children of the immediately preceding persons bearing immediately preceding numbers. All persons in each group bearing the same letter as a part of their numbers, are directly related. The generations of the descendants of those bearing numbers of three figures are represented as follows. However, some of our material is published as copied from various records without rearrangement according to this system.

6 (B) THE TAYLOR COAT OF ARMS

COAT of arms is an emblem or a device which is displayed by titled persons, persons of royal blood, and their descendants. Coats of Arms were originally used for purposes of identification and recogni­ tion on the field of battle as well as in civil life. It is claimed by some writers that Coats of Arms, in a crude form, were used by Noah's sons after the flood. There are records of other Coats of Arms, in one crude form or another, at different periods of ancient history. Heraldry, however, as we know it today, did not become of much importance until soon after the invasion of England by William the Conqueror, A. D. 1066. Heraldry became of general interest at about the time of the Crusades. The Taylor Coat of Arms shown in the front of this volume is the Arms of Taylor, Earls of Bective and Marquises of Headfort. Coats of Arms very similar to it are used by other great Taylor families, and numerous branches of the family have Coats of Arms resembling it. This is the most widely used of all Taylor Coats of Arms, and has been in existence for many centuries. It is described in BURKE'S GENERAL ARMORY, BURKE'S LANDED GENTRY, BURKE'S PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE, and other reliable works on heraldry, in some cases accom­ panied by illustrations and pedigrees. In the opinion of established authori­ ties, practically all Taylor families in America claim this Coat of Arms.

HERALDIC .LANGUAGE ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

drm.r...... Ermine, on a chief gules, a An ermine shield (white with fleur-de-lis between two black spots), bearing across boar's heads, couped and the upper half a red band on erect or. which is a fleur-de-lis between two boar's heads, all gold.

Crut...... A naked arm em bowed A naked arm, bent at elbow graspmg an arrow proper. and grasping an arrow, all in natural colors.

JU otto ...... Consequitur quodqunque He obtains whatever he seeks. petit. (Latin)

The boar's head was once the chief dish at Christmas feasts in palace and castle. When England's sovereigns kept Christmas of yore in their noble halls at Guildford, Eltham, Westminster or Windsor, in high estate, arrayed with crown and sceptre, clothed in ermine and surrounded by their wondering subjects, it was brought to their table with great ceremony. The introduction of the great dish was accompanied by music and singing often by the song reprinted below.

7 "Caput Apri refero Reddens laudes Domino. The bore' s head in hand bring I With garlans gay and rosemary, I pray you all sing merrily Qui estic convivio. "The bore's head, I understande, Is the chief servyce in this lande Loke wherever it be fande, Servite cum cantico."

So is explained the significance in the Taylor Coat of Arms of the golden boar's heads on either side of the fleur-de-lis, ancient symbol of nobility. Sir Bernard Burke, of Heralds College, , said "Heraldry is prized by all who can show honorable ancestry or wish to found honorable families." Besides its family significance this Coat of Arms makes an excellent mural decoration and inspires the admiration and comment of all who see it. It is quite appropriate that members of the Taylor family who have a pride in their ancestry should display the family Coat of Arms, in proper colors.

Perhaps the most ancient of all Taylor families in England is that one sprung from the Taliaferros, for its origin carries us back to Julius Caesar and his campaign in Gaul, in the year 58 B. C. The old tradition tells us that Julius Caesar, while inspecting his camp at twilight, was surrounded by Gallic bal'barians, who would have killed

8 him had it not been for the intervention of one of the barbarians, who so admired Caesar for his bravery and courage in defending himself that he refused to let him be murdered. Caesar in return for this timely assistance made the man one of his personal attendants, and he was allowed to carry arms (a sword and dart), from the Latin expression for which the name Taliaferro was originated. A branch of the family descended from this man wandered to Normandy and, centuries later, the Norman Baron Taillefer (or Taliaferro) accompanied William the Conqueror to England, and fell in his presence in the van of his army at the battle of Hastings, October 14, 1066. The death of the gallant hero is vividly described in Bulwer's "The Last of the Saxon Kings." Taillefer' s family received from the Conqueror large landed estates in the County of Kent, as his portion of the spoils. Hanger Taylefer, his descendant, held lands in the tenure of Ospringe, County of Kent, A.D. 1256, and from him, about one hundred years later, we have John Taylor, in the homestall in Schodoschurst, Kent.

15 (D) PROMINENT BRITISH TAYLORS, PAST GENERATIONS ALFRED SWAINE TAYLOR: (1806-1880); medical jurist; b. at Kent; travelled and studied extensively and reached London in 1829; mem. of the Royal Coll. of Surgeons; professor of medical jurisprudence at Gray's Hospital, 1831 to 1877; lecturer on chemistry; his service as a witness in criminal in­ vestigations were much in demand; his books on medical jurisprudence and on poisons, are standard works throughout the world; in recognition of the value of his "Medical Jurisprudence", he was awarded the Swiney prize of the Society of Arts; from 1844 to 1851, Taylor was editor of the London .il1edical Gazette and to his labors and industry the paper owed much of its repute; m., 1834, Caroline, only dau. of John Chancellor. BROOK: (1685-1731); mathematician; admitted a fellow of the Royal Society, 1712; secretary, 1714-18; in 1714 he published a remarkable solution ofthe problem of the centre of oscillation; for the first time he determined the differential equation of the path of a ray of light when traversing a hetero­ geneous medium, and also the principal of vanishing point; in 1715 his studies took a philosophic and religious bent; unfinished treatises, "On the Jewish Sacrifices" and "On the Lawfulness of Eating Blood", were found among his papers; as a mathematician he was the only Englishman after Newton and Cotes, capable of holding his own with the Bernovilles; he was also an artist and musician of considerable ability. CHARLES: (1756-1823); scholar and engraver; b. in Essex; studied en­ graving under Bartolozzi; visited , 1777; devoted himself to the revision of Colmet's Dictionary of the Bible which he began to publish anonymously in 1797. It immediately attracted great attention; after his death he was acknowledged to be the editor; as an engraver he possessed much artistic feeling, but no delicacy of tool. EDWARD: (1784-1863); Gresham professor of music; s. of John, hymn­ writer; entered the musical profession, 1827; translated Spohr's "Last Judg­ ment", "Crucifixion", "Fall of Babylon", and "Christian's Prayer"; was appointed Gresham professor of music, a post which he held till his death; in 1838 he gave his first three lectures. Taylor gave frequent lectures with great success in different parts of the country; Taylor translated quite a number of compositions. Sm HENRY: (1800-1886); author of "Philip Van Artevelde"; after his wife's death, Taylor became a recluse; several of his articles were published; he had the offer of the editorship of the London .il1agazine; held a position of responsibility in the colonial department; at that time he was writing in the Quarterly and set to work upon dramatizing the story of Philip Van Artevelde; in 1840 he published a defence of Charles Elliot's proceedings in China, which converted the Duke of Wellington and was translated into Ger- . man; finally "Philip Van Artvelde" was completed and was a great success. Taylor avoided, rather than sought, high offices, and refused the government of Upper Canada. Sm HERBERT: (1775-1839); Lieut.-Gen.; in 1792 he accompanied Sir James Murray on a special mission to the Prussian headquarters; Murray

16 presented him to the Duke of York to whom he became greatly attached; later he was appointed aide-de-camp to the commander-in-chief, the Duke of York, 1796, and became his private secretary; in 1805 Taylor became private secretary to the king, who placed every confidence in him, also acting as one of the three commissioners of the king's real and personal estate; was secre­ tary to Queen Charlotte, a knight of the royal Guelphic order, and represented Windsor in parliament; lieutenant-general, 1825; the king made him his first and principal aide-de-camp, 1827; became adjutant-general of the forces, holding that position until the accesion of William IV, to whom he became private secretary, and who conferred on him the grand cross of the order of the Bath. ISAAC: (1730-1807); engraver; b. at Worchester; went to London; admitted a fellow of the Society of Artists, becoming secretary; Taylor designed and engraved the vignette to Goldsmith's "Deserted Village"; to Robertson's "Charles V"; Chamber's" Cyclopaedia" and numerous other publications; the plates for "Sir Charles Grandison" were exhibited with the Society of Artists; Bewick says, "Not many plates have been superior to these." His style was finished, his workmanship sound, and he laid the foundation of that ornamental style of library decoration in which at the close of the last century English craftmanship won decided triumphs over that of the continent; he was also an excellent portrait-painter, and skillful in pencil-drawings several of which are in the . ISAAC: (1787-1865); artist, author and inventor, grandson of Isaac (above). Some of his designs and engravings exhibited and their originality and power excited the admiration of Rosetti, and led Gilchrist to compare them with some of Blake's plates; however, he was never an engraver professionally, and turned to literature as his vocation; joined the staff of the Eclectic Re"iew; first literary venture, "The Elements of Thought" was followed by a new translation of the "Characters of Theophrastus", the first edition of which still commands a good price; there appeared many others, but he is best remembered by "The Natural History of Enthusiasm"; Taylor was character­ ized by great learning, noble aims and a deep personal piety; was always much interested in mechanical devices and inventions, one of which was a highly ingenious machine for engraving upon copper. JANE: (1783-1824); writer for the young; dau. of Isaac Taylor; from a very early age, Jane and her sister began imagining stories and writing plays and verses; her natural propensity to book-making was extraordinary and from the age of eight or nine she began drafting prefaces, title-pages, introduc­ tions and dedications of a singular precocity; the first work of Jane's which appeared was a contribution to "The Minor's Pocket Book", 1804; the pub­ lishers requested more and they obtained a wide popularity, being reprinted in America, and translated into German, Dutch and Russian; some fifty editions have appeared in England alone; the sisters published jointly "Rhymes for the Nursery" which contained Jane's familiar "Twinkle, twinkle, little star"; they next devoted themselves to writing children's hymns and here their success was perhaps most conspicuous of all; the authors worked under great disadvantages, as neither of their parents approved a literary

17 career; they wrote in minutes snatched in the early morning or late at night; at the marriage of Ann, Jane continued alone and in 1816 commenced her regular contributions to the Youth' J' Magazine,· they were collected in two volumes as the "Contributions of Q. Q. ", some of her prose excited the admiration of Robert :Browning, and some of her rhymes were the favorites of Sir Walter Scott. JEREMY: D.D.; (1613-1667); bishop of Down and Connor and adminis­ trator of Dromore, a descendant of Rowland Taylor, the martyr; took orders before he was twenty-one and his preaching attracted the notice of Laud who sent him to Oxford; Laud made him his chaplain and he was shortly appointed chaplain-in-ordinary to Charles I; about 1645 he and Nicholson and Wyatt conducted a school, at the same time Taylor was chaplain to the second earl of Carbery; the king presented him with a watch and several pearls and rubies from the ebony case of his Bible; was made a member of the Irish privy council, and he preached at the opening of the Irish parliament; Rust says of him, "the good humor of a gentleman, the eloquence of an orator, the fancy of a poet, the acuteness of a schoolman, the profoundness of a philosopher, the wisdom of a chancellor, the sagacity of a prophet, the reason of an angel and the piety of a saint"; his "Holy Dying" was very popular and his literary genius recognized, especially in his sermons. JOHN: (d. 1534); master of the rolls; b. in a humble cottage with two other boys; the children were shown as a curiosity to Henry VII who directed that they be taken care of and undertook the expense of their education; John graduated doctor of civil and canon law at some foreign university; rector of Sulton Coldfield; in Henry VIII's reign Taylor's employments increased; he was king's clerk and chaplain, clerk of the parliaments, master of chancery, and receiver of petitions from England, Ireland and Wales; in 1510 Henry presented him to the church of All Saints the More, London, and the follow­ ing year Taylor accompanied him on his campaign in France; in 1520 accom­ panied Henry VIII as his chaplain to the Field of the Cloth of Gold and was present at the meeting between Henry and Charles V. Taylor served as ambassador several terms and was rewarded for his services by being made master of the rolls. JoHN: (1580-1653); the "water-poet" as he called himself; b. of humble parentage at Gloucester; Thames waterman; business became poor and he sought to increase his earning by turning to account his knack of easy rhyming; was an acute observer of character, custom and incident and could express himself in rollicking prose as well as rhyme; Taylor would go on journeys and record his adventures, but before starting, would issue "Taylor's bills" announcing the condition under which he travelled in the hope of inducing his friends to pay down a sum of money or promise to do so on the completion of the "journey"; thus he acquired numerous patrons of all degrees, including . Ben Jonson, Nicholas Breton, Thomas Dekker and other men of genius, his journeys and the resulting booklets were whimsical; at Oxford Taylor was much esteemed by the court and scholars for his facetious company. JOHN: (1704-1766); classical scholar; university librarian; registrar at Cambridge; in 1753 became archdeacon of Buckingham; fellow of the Royal Society and of the Antiquarian Society; his works were published after the author's death and are mostly at the University libraries of Oxford, Cambridge, and the British Museum.

19 had to be kept quiet by moral strength as th~re was no troops at his disposal, he kept perfect order. In 1860 he returned to England amid the liveliest demonstrations of regret from all quarters of India.

(K) TAYLOR TOWNS, ETC. There are in the United States towns as follows: TAYLOR: Alaska, Ariz., Ark., La., Miss., Mo., Nebr., N. Y., N. Dak., Pa., Tex., Wash., Wis.; TAYLOR CREEK: Mont.; TAYLORIA: Pa.; TAYLOR

73 RIDGE: Ill.; TAYLORS: S. C.; TAYLORS BRIDGE: Del.; TAYLORS CREEK: Ga.; TAYLORS FALLS: Minn.; TAYLORS Is LAND: Md.; TAYLORSPORT: Ky.; TAYLOR SPRINGS: Ill., N. Mex.; TAYLORS STORE: Va.; TAYLORS TOWN: Pa., Va.; TAYLORS VALLEY: Va.; TAYLORSVILLE: Ala., Calif., Ga., Ind., Ky., Miss., N. C., Ohio, Va.; TAYLORTOWN: La.; TAYLORVILLE: Ill. There are also in the United States numerous counties, townships, streets, avenues, etc., bearing the name "Taylor". This is eloquent testimony to the high esteem in which thP name is held in this country.

(L) TAYLOR CENSUS OF THE UNITED STATES

The compiler of these records has made up a list from city and telephone directories of the United States, and from other sources, as follows. Care was taken to eliminate, wherever possible, persons known or believed to be colored, or of nationalities other than British and American:

Alabama ...... 312 Maine...... 108 Oklahoma...... 183 Arizona...... 17 Maryland...... 371 Oregon...... 57 Arkansas...... 122 Massachusetts ...... 1306 Pennsylvania ...... 1855 California ...... 1562 Michigan...... 904 Rhode Island ...... 14 7 Colorado...... 246 Minnesota ...... 253 South Carolina...... 63 Connecticut...... 435 Mississippi ...... 103 South Dakota...... 19 District of Columbia. . . 326 Missouri ...... 575 Tennessee...... 587 Delaware...... 98 Montana ...... 107 Texas ...... 1129 Florida ...... 430 Nebraska ...... 214 Utah ...... 140 Georgia...... 273 Nevada ...... Vermont...... 50 Idaho...... 52 New Hampshire ...... 108 Virginia...... 422 Illinois ...... 1314 New Jersey ...... 705 Washington...... 37 4 Indiana...... 779 New Mexico...... 14 West Virginia ...... 260 Iowa ...... 327 New York ...... 2231 Wisconsin...... 189 Kansas ...... 296 North Carolina ...... 196 Wyoming ...... 31 Kentucky...... 260 North Dakota ...... 30 Louisiana...... 140 Ohio ...... 1591 Total...... 21,311

To secure an estimate of the "Taylor population" of the United States, we figure as follows : (a) Multiply by Only about half the names were taken from each directory consulted ...... 2 Half of the Taylors reside in the rural districts or in small towns having no printed directories which were available to us...... 2 There are an average of more than four persons in each American family...... 4 Since Taylor daughters marry and have as many descendants as the Taylor sons, there are as many descendants of "other names" as there are bearing the name Taylor (though it is much easier to locate the latter)...... 2

74 By multiplying each £gure of column (a) into the preceding figure, we have a total of...... 32 Conservative estimate of the Taylor population of the United States, one-half of whom bear the name Taylor and one-half of whom bear other names...... 681,952 The estimated Taylor population of any of the states may be obtained by multiplying the £gures shown by 32. The Taylor popu­ lation of the British Empire is probably equal to that in the United States.

(M) RELIGIONS OF THE TAYLORS For several centuries the Taylors lived in England and North Ireland. Most of the British (with the exception of those living in South Ireland), and, likewise, the Taylors were and are of the Protestant faith. There are a few Taylors of the Catholic faith in the British Isles, but it is estimated that their number does not exceed seven per cent of the entire Taylor population. The Taylors who came from the British Isles to America continued in the faith of their fathers, for the most part, though their descendants in this country today will be found in the memberships of practically all the various churches. It is estimated that of all the Taylors in America who are church members, at least ninety-five per cent are of the Protestant faith. Biographical sketches of ninety-seven Taylors appear in WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA. Their religious faiths are shown as follows: BAPTIST, 6; CHRISTIAN SCIENCE, l; CONGREGATIONALIST, 2; FRIEND (QUAKER), l; DUTCH REFORM, 2; EPISCOPAL, 8; METHODIST, 2; METHODIST EPISCOPAL, 2; PRESBYTERIAN, 8; REFORMED, l; OTHER PROTESTANTS, 3; RELIGION NOT STATED, 51.
