My Reuben Miles lived in Shelby Co KY. His parents were Charles Miles and Elizabeth Taylor of Culpeper Co VA. I have her heritage as being: Benjamin Taylor 1704-1775 Tom Jr 1657-1712 md Elizabeth Harwood Tom Sr 1637-1686 md Mary ? John 1607-1652 md Elizabeth ? Tom Jr 1574-1618 md Margaret Swinderly Tom Sr 1548-? md Elizabeth Burwell Dr. Rowland Taylor 1510-1555 burned at stake md Margaret Tyndale. This was taken from the book by Mary Taylor Brewer "From Log Cabins to The White House: A History of the Taylor Family" Have you heard of this family? Any help or corrections would be appreciated. Donna

Donna, I am very interested in your TAYLOR family. Do you have any dates for Elizabeth Taylor mother of Reuben? I have a Eunice Elizabeth Taylor b. 1826 in Shelby Co. KY whose mother is probably named Sarah from VA, born abt. 1799. Eunice's father is John W. Taylor, and she may have had a brother named Phillip W. Taylor. I have heard that this family may be related somehow to Zachary Taylor, but I have not made the connection yet. Is the "History of the Taylor Family" book yours? I would like to look at a copy at our library if it is available. Can you tell me anything more about this book? Thank you so much for the reply, I hope we can make a connection with our families! Beth

They also have a web site: http://www.kentuckyhistory.org/agencies/khs/hcenter/hcenter_index.htm This is a great place to visit, if you get the chance. Tom

Beth: Check out this web site to see if it helps you any. http://members.tripod.com/~LdyDy/index-Taylor7.html Gary L.

Thank you so much! I will give it a look!! Beth

Laurel, Have a few slight references in Willis to Andrew, Bolling, James, Jesse, Sarah,and Waller Holmes and to an Andrew Holmes in "Wills & Estates" but no Robert. The 1840 Census does show a Robert Holmes in Shelby Co., p.135. Have some info on a Robert James Holmes (b.15 Jan 1810 Shelby Co., KY; d.21 Jun 1886), father Jesse Holmes, mother Nancy Ann Drusilla Taylor if that's any help - or perhaps I'm just muddying the waters.

Does anyone know if the Kentucky Historical Society has an e-mail address or what their snail mail address and phone number is. I heard there was a Gay Magazine, Gay being a surname, printed about 1921 and was wondering if they had it. Thanks for any help. Marilyn from Florida

Janet, Unfortunately, I do not have a William TAYLOR, yet. There may be a connection, though, I will post more as I find others in this family! Thanks! Beth

Beth, Would you have a William Taylor- no dates. m Isabel Scott b.1851.KY.? I had family in Shelby Co. ,Trimble,Henry Co.KY. Thanks Janet

Hello Alice, Thanks for posting! I am researching BELL, TAYLOR, and SWEARANGER surnames in Shelby County. I have just started, so I will tell you what I know so far. John W. TAYLOR is my gggg grandfather, his daughter Eunice E. TAYLOR b. 1826, married John Breckenridge BELL b. 1826. Son of Zachariah BELL and Susanna SWEARANGER. John and Eunice moved to Jefferson County, KY, then on to Christian Co., KY. According to family stories, there may be a connection to President Zachary TAYLOR, but this is yet unproven. Maybe you or someone else will recognize these family members! I would love to know more about them. Beth

Hi Listers: I am new to this list and wanted to post my names in the hope that you recognize them: McQUAID, HUGGINS, TAYLOR, METCALF(E). If I have 'peaked' your interest, please let me know!! Alice in Arizona
