I know someone has to know this family.My Grgrgrgrandfather was John B/M ? Smith. In 1827 when he married Jane Shell in Hamilton Co. Illinois he was listed as JOHN M. SMITH But in the 1850 & 1860 he was listed as JOHN B. SMITH. His children were Sarah & Lewis twins, Nancy ,Layfette, Rufus M. & John Smith. I dont know if John M Smith changed his name or it was a mistake to begin with. But I found their marrige & his Brother was Samuel Smith who came with him to Illinois around 1825-27. Their father was Richard Smith. This family were either Native American or Jane Shell was Native American. Because Nancy Smith daughter of John B Smith in a photograph I have of her wearing an arrowhead necklace. She looks indian. My great uncle told me his grandmother was Cherokee. Anyway, Nancy married John W. Brown 1857 had a son 1860 Matthew Brown Hamilton Co. Illinois. They DIVORCED then she married my grgrgreat grandfather Alex/Eli Taylor. Have NEVER found them together or with children. My grgrandmother Mary BTaylor on her marriage lic written in says:NO MOTHER OR FATHER IN THIS STATE SAID BRO. MATTHEW BROWN & STEP FATHER JOHN W. BROWN GIVES PERMISSION TO MARRY. I cant find her living with stepfather or anyone!???!On the other hand DIVORCE papers say she was married to Alex Taylor & was secertly seeing ex John W. Brown . John W. Brown gave written statement to the event.But John Lane who had a daughter named Nancy Lane was also married around the time my Nancy Smith Brown would have married Alex Taylor. This John Lane gave my Nancy Smith Brown away to Alex as said Father!?!! I need help on this stwist of fate. I just think after 26 years on Nancy Smith Im about to find out what is what. I need help. I got all this info. From the court houses in Saline Co. & Hamilton CO. Illinois. HELP with my Taylors please! |

| 1057 - 11/13/2011 4:12:35 PM - nancyreed55@gmail.com - I descend from William Taylor born Feb. 10, 1800. In his portrait, he is wearing a black hat & suit and has lost part of two fingers of one hand. He married Mary Jenetta Huntley, who was 34 years younger than he, so I assume he married before her. They lived in Clinton County In. from at least Mar. 5, 1860, when they were married until their deaths. My grandmother's Bible tells that his father was also named William and that he died in 1860. We also have a William listed as born on Oct. 15, 1829, which would make more sense for our William, if it were not the age on his stone. They are buried in Old Liberty Cemetery, Clinton County, In. Any help is greatly appreciated. |

| 1055 - 11/12/2011 9:14:58 AM - jacktaylorjr@yahoo.com - I am the GGgrandson of William Washington Taylor, b 1819 in NC and died in Claiborne Parish, LA in 1890. My gggrandmother said his father was Kinchen Taylor, whose father was William Taylor, a member of the Continental Congress and a Lt. in the Revolutionary War. His father was George was a member of the Va. Convention at which Patrick Henry made his famous speech. This seems to indicate a connection to Col. George Taylor from Orange County, Va and his son William Taylor who died in Louisville, Ky. However there is no record of a Kinchen Taylor connected to this William Taylor. I am a dead end here. Let me know if you have any ideas or help. Thanks. |

| 1028 - 8/15/2011 1:36:49 PM - mothergoosemagic@yahoo.com - I am looking for the family of Richard H. Taylor who settled in St. Louis, MO. According to the 1900 census, he was born Feb 1852 in VA. His death certificate states he was born in Virginia, with his father born in Ireland and mother born in England. However, in all the census I've found during his lifetime, they list both his parents as being born in Virginia. I don't have any names for them. Richard married Julia Lifka, probably in St. Louis. Their children were: William, Edward, Alfred, Emele (female), Robert Paul, Richard, and what looks like Amile (male--1900 census). Any information would be greatly appreciated. |
