NC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Johnston/12152 Surname: Smith, Taylor, Gardner ------------------------- Further information to add ... Patsy Smith Taylor was a relative of Ava Gardner. Can anyone now reply with any information? Patsy Smith Taylor married Henry Taylor; they had several children (8-9). Patsy moved to Wilson County where she later died at a young age in 1920. She was a very petite young woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. One of Patsy's children is still alive in New York state at the age of 95 years; my grandfather (Willie Taylor) was also Patsy's child. My grandfather would be 100 years old if he were alive today. Taylors', Smiths' and Gardners' all relating to the geographical location of Johnston County not far from Smithfield, eventually to the Goldsboro and Wilson areas.
