I have put astericks(*) around a section that doesn't seem to fit with the rest. It begins with Burrell Taylor b. 1815 in Montgomery Co., GA and continues through his descendants. It is not possible for him to be the son of James J. Taylor b. 1803 and Lydia Tanner b. 1807 as is shown in the Descendants Chart. Can someone please straighten me out?
