Hello, I am looking for connections to William TAYLOR. He was born in England (no dates) and immigrated to the colonies in 1765. He settled on New River in Virginia near Old Grayson Court House (now Old Town, Va.). He married an Austin from what is now Ashe Co., NC and they raised 6 sons and 1 daughter. The known names of their children are: Benjamin, b. ca. 1794, d. April 26, 1867; m. Nancy Farmer (said to be part cherokee) Ned (no dates) Jim (no dates) Richard (no dates), m. Mildred Brett Bettie (Elizabeth?) (no dates), m. (1) ______ Hart (2) William Allison (Ellison) My records indicate that Benjamin, Ned and Jim settled in NC, Richard settled in Tenn., and Bettie came to NC, then back to Virginia. As you can see, there are still two sons missing (if they had 6 sons). I have Info up to the present on Benjamin's line as this is my husband's direct line. If any of this rings a bell with anyone, please contact me. I would very much love to be able to find out about William's other two children as well as info on the other shown above. Would also like to find out about his Ancestry?? Merry Christmas to EVERYONE!!! Sharon D. Young also researching: Davis, Dick, Mercer, Baucom, Helms, Cox, Young, Ward, Proveaux, Wilkes, etc......
