Hi, I am pretty new to this list serve, and hoped to find some info on the name Taliaferro. My gg grandparents migrated from Va. to Flint in the 1850's. They had several children, including Charles, my g grandfather, who was divorced from his first wife, Etta. I have not been able to follow him after that. Would love any additional info anyone may have! Thank you!! Donna

Donna, I only have a very little as this is not a direct line; my great-grandmother's sister (Nellie Reed) married a Taliaferro. But I thought I'd share what I DO have. . . . Claiborne or Clayton TALIAFERRO, born 1850 in Virginia; died 2 Oct 1889; buried Avondale Cemetery, Flint, Genesee, Michigan married to Luella or Willa HIBBARD, born in Michigan. Son of Claiborne & Luella: Ernest Claiborne TALIAFERRO, born 16 Mar 1883 in Flint, Genesee, Michigan; died 1930; buried Avondale Cemetery, Flint married on 12 Jan 1916 in Flint, to Nellie Edith REED, born about 1889 in Flint; died 1953, buried Avondale Cemetery. Children of Ernest & Nellie: Mary E. TALIAFERRO, born 1917 in Michigan Elizabeth M. TALIAFERRO, born 1919 in Michigan Sources: Genesee County Michigan Cemeteries, Volume 9; compiled by Merle Perry, Jr.; Flint Genealogical Society. 1920 US Census, Genesee County MI, ED 11, sheet 6B; 8 Jan 1920. World War I Draft Registration for Genesee County Michigan (Ernest); serial no. 897, order no. 504, 12 Sep 1918. Genesee Co. Record of Births (Ernest); Vol 2; pg 204; record number 660. Genesee Co. Record of Marriages; Vol 8; pg 226; record number 3251 (Ernest & Nellie's marriage; says that Ernest was married once before). There are also a few Taliaferros in the Flint Genealogical Society Red Book Index (although I don't have the documentation for them). http://www.rootsweb.com/~mifgs/rbindex/syte-tayl_1.html : Taliaferra, Ernest C.; 2/16/1930 Taliaferro, Mrs. Maria; 11/23/1884 Taliaferro, Rhea Edna; 9/12/1919 I do hope something in here is helpful to you!
