Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iMB.2ACI/980.2.2.1 Message Board Post: Dority Cemetery is located in Camden County Missouri. It it located North on Z Highway until the highway ends, then follow the gravel road (Dority Road) to the cemetery on the right. I found this by 'Googling" Dority Cemetery Missouri. The cemetery has been transcribed and it lists Eben Taylor as "Ebron" born 1/11/1811 - died 8/11/1894. This information matches his Civil War Pension file, so I know that it is the same person. His second wife Elizabeth J. (Ash) Taylor is also buried there. Regarding the Civil War book, I will try to get this information sent to you as soon as I can.

The Dority Cemetary is located in Climax Springs, Mo. There is a large marker with Ebbon and Elizabeth J. Taylor listed on it. Eben b. Jan 11, 1811 d. Aug 11, 1894. Elizabeth J. b. Oct 28, 1841 d. Aug 7, 1928. Off R. 24 going west you go r. on Z Rd. and go into the old town of Climax Springs which is deserted with lots of old buildings. Go left as the road turns then you come to a fork in the right, bare r. Its a dirt road and you ford a small stream before the cemetary. Dority Cemetary is located on the left and is fenced in. In the early 1900's the cemetary was called Rainy Creek Cem. Frank G. Taylor Ebon's last son owned a filling station in the old town of Climax Springs. I am the grgr granddaughter of Ebon. He had 3 brothers. I know one to be named Hubbard and my family long ago mentions a Bushrod Taylor as a brother (I cannot document this at this time, just from old family letters.). Lee Kirtley

I'm delighted to get the information on Eben Taylor. I'm working on a book at the Cole County Historical Society, listing Cole Countians who were veterans of the Civil War. I have a long list of names and am adding brief biographical sketches where possible. Eben Taylor is among the people on the list. I would appreciate any additional information (or pictures?)you might provide. You can send it to me at beatku@mchsi.com . I also have a Lawrence Taylor who enlisted in the Home Guard. Is he yours? We didn't have Hubbard listed. Can you tell me more about him?

I found Eban Bess Taylor, age 18, in the 1870 census living in the household of Joel and Margaret Prine, parents of his future wife, Martha Elizabeth Prine.

Thomas and Anna seem to be in the same area The land of Nathan, Perry, Martin, and Johnson Taylor seem to 'cluster' together as though those men might be related. And it is that group of Taylors who married into the Murray family.

Hubbard was born about 1813 in Kentucky and died in 1865 in Linn Creek Missouri (Camden County) Hubbard's wife's name is Sidney (Spradley) Taylor. Sidney was born about 1814 in Alabama (Note: some census records have her birth place as Tennessee). Hubbard married Sidney Spradley in 1834 in Madison County Alabama. About 6 weeks after their marriage they relocated to Illinois then to Missouri. Hubbard & Sidney had six children: William M. born about 1836 - died 1890; Elizabeth born about 1838 - death date unknown (Note: I descend from Elizabeth) ; John H. born 1841 - died 1933; Josephine born about 1842 - death date unknown; Sidney born about 1845 - death date unknown; and Missouri born about 1851 - death date unknown.

Surnames: TAYLOR/SPRADLEY/LINDSEY/BROWN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iMB.2ACI/995 Message Board Post: Searching for information on the family of my ggg grandfather Hubbard Taylor and ggg grandmother, Sidney (Spradley) Taylor. Hubbard Taylor was born about 1813/1814 in Kentucky and died October 24, 1865 in Linn Creek, Camden County Missouri. Sidney Spradley was born about 1814/1815 in either Alabama or Tennessee. Her death date and place of burial are unknown. Hubbard Taylor and Sidney Spradley were married in Madison County, Alabama on July 21, 1834. As far as my research has determined, they were the parents of six children. There may have been other children, but these are the children that I have found listed on census records. 1. William M. Taylor - Born about 1836 2. *Elizabeth Taylor - Born about 1838 3. John Taylor - Born about 1840 4. Josephine Taylor - Born about 1842 5. Sidney Taylor - Born about 1845 6. Missouri Taylor - Born about 1851 *Elizabeth (Taylor) Lindsey is my ancestor. Through my research, I found records that Hubbard Taylor briefly served in the Civil War and fought for the Union in the Missouri Home Guards. On August 26, 1891, at the age of 76 years, Sidney Taylor applied for a Widow’s pension under the “Widow’s Act of June 27, 1890.” Below are excerpts taken from Hubbard Taylor's pension file. Note: I have made some corrections to the original transcript for the ease in reading. DEPOSITION - CASE OF SIDNEY TAYLOR, NO.525400 On this 15th day of January 1900, at Scotland, County of Jasper, State of Missouri, before me, Jno. L. Cowles, a Special Examiner of the Pension Office, personally appeared Sidney Taylor, who, being by me first duly sworn to answer truly all interrogatories propounded to her during this Special Examination of aforesaid pension claim, deposes and says: I am about 86 years of age, no occupation Residence and post office Scotland, Jasper County Missouri. I am the widow of Hubbard Taylor who was a member of Company B, Osage Co, Regiment, Missouri Home Guards from July 1861 to December 1861. That was all the service he ever rendered either military or naval. The soldier died at Linn Creek, Camden County Missouri, on October 24 1865. My maiden name was Sidney Spradley. I was raised in Lawrence County Alabama and married Hubbard Taylor in Madison County Alabama when I was about 18 years old. The date of my marriage as near as I can get at it was the 24th day of July 1834 = now I fix that date this way: A few days before we had a big camp meeting, Mr. Taylor went to Huntsville Alabama about 12 miles from where we lived to get the license about three days after that we got a preacher down at the Camp meeting to go home with us and marry us. The preachers name was Hawkins a Methodist preacher. When I made out my papers first I di! dn't know what they wanted exactly and of course didn't remember very well then after that I got to studying over it and I remembered a good deal. Then about a year or more ago I told judge Cossart of Chauncey Camden County Missouri what I have told you here and he wrote to Madison County Alabama and got a copy of the license which I now hand you and that shows a license was granted us July 21 1834, but he could not get any record of a return being made on that license because the preacher who married us probably didn't make any return. Question. Had you or the soldier ever been married before? Answer: No sir, neither one of us. Question: How do you know he had not been? Answer: Oh I had known him before he was old enough to marry he was only 21 when he married me. Question: Had he any brothers and sisters living? Answer: I don't know of any living. The last one died about 2 years ago that was a brother, an Eben Taylor who was in an Illinois Regt. don't know what one, was a pensioner for wounds. Hubbard had six sisters and 3 brothers. They all scattered and the Lord only knows what became of them. I had six sisters and three brothers but I never saw any of them after I married and they all lived in Lawrence County Alabama, the last I heard of them many years ago I know two of my brothers are dead. William was living in Huntsville Alabama the last I heard of him. I was married in the house of Mr. Taylor's sister’s daughter a Mrs. Benjamin Tipton, they lived in Madison County Alabama 12 miles from Huntsville on the Huntsville and Nashville main road right close to a little country town called McNulty then. I never heard what became of Mrs. Tipton if living she is older than I am. There was three Tipton’s at my wedding one man and two women there was Elizabeth Campbell and Richard Campbell and some others whose names I can't remember. Jeff Bell came in right after I was married - There were two [not sure if that word is 'two'] Derrick’s, McNulty’s and McDaniel’s were all neighbors. I don’t recall we stayed there over six weeks after we married then we moved out to Illinois a place called Washington, I think where Hubbard’s father was. Only there a few days then father and all of us come to Jefferson City Mo. Lived in town at first then in the country altogether making that our pos! t office until some time in 1857 left there in the fall and came out to Camden Co Mo.

He m Elizabeth Schmidt April 23, 1872 and they had John A., Jacob, Fredrick William, Phillip M. & Teresa Helen. Have his obit but nothing on parents & siblings or anything past his 1847 dob. Also have a Familien-Chronik (copy) dated January 11, 1891 (in German) listing ten individuals.
