.Hi: The line I'm looking for starts with a big brick wall. I have info on this line but have little or nothing on the children of John Taylor and Rebbecca (LORD). John b. in OH. 1833. Rebbecca b. TN 1838.They had 6 sons &2 daughters. All the children were born in KS. except. the last boy John D. b. 1888 b. in KS. William L. b.1861 d.1933 James R. b. 1864 d. (in prison in Jefferson City KS.1888) Joseph J. b.1868. Francis M. b.1870. Samuel L. b. 1872 I have no deaths on the rest of the boys. Or where they went as adults. If this rings a bell with anyone please let me know if anyone wants any more info. Jackie Taylor/ McWilliams

William, Are you sure it was 1840? Because only the heads of household were listed before 1850. Where did you obtain the information? It should give you page number and more information on the census. When you get that, you ask someone who has access to the census to look up the information or image. But it would not have been 1840 unless it was possibly an orphanage and everyone was listed. But even that doesn't sound right to me. I don't know it all, though (actually, very little :-) One other possibility is that Samuel Taylor was the head of household and the age is incorrect, although they weren't listed by age either prior to 1850. Except that the household would list the number of persons 0-10 years old, 10-20, 30-40, etc. Marilyn ----- Original Message ----- From: <Superdome@aol.com> Subject: [TAYLOR] Samuel, 1840 census, Batavia, N.Y. >I have found a possible ancester "Samuel Taylor" about age 10 in the 1840 > Federal Census for Genesee county, Batavia, N.Y.

At a proper age he commenced the study of >> medicine; but his genius not being adapted to the profession, he >> relinquished his medical studies, and soon after set sail for America. >> >> On his arrival, he was entirely destitute of money, and was obliged to >> resort to manual labor to pay the expenses of his voyage to America. The >> name of the gentleman who kindly employed him, and paid his passage, was >> Savage. He was the owner of extensive iron works at Durham, a small >> village, >> situated on the river Delaware, a few miles from Easton. >> >> In these works, young Taylor was for a time employed to throw coal >> into >> the furnace, when in blast. The business was, however, too severe for >> him, >> and at length Mr. Savage transferred him from this menial and arduous >> service, into his counting room as a clerk. In this situation, he >> rendered >> himself very useful and acceptable, and, at length, upon the death of Mr. >> Savage, he became connected in marriage with his widow, and consequently >> the >> proprietor of the whole establishment. In a few years the fortune of Mr. >> Taylor was considerably farther increased. He was now induced to purchase >> a >> considerable estate near the river Lehigh, in the county of Northampton, >> where he erected a spacious mansion, and took up his permanent residence. >> >> A few years after, Mr. Taylor was summoned by his fellow-citizens into >> public life. Of the provincial assembly, which met at Philadelphia, in >> October, 1764, he was for the first time a member, and immediately >> rendered >> himself conspicuous, by the active part which he took in all the >> important >> questions which came before that body. >> >> From this period, until 1770 Mr. Taylor continued to represent the >> county of Northampton in the provincial assembly. He was uniformly placed >> on >> several standing committees, and was frequently entrusted, in connection >> with other gentlemen, with the management of many important special >> concerns, as they continued to rise. At Northampton, Mr. Taylor entered >> into >> the business, which had so extensively occupied him, while at Durham. The >> business, however, at the former place was by no means as profitable as >> it >> had been at the latter. Indeed it is said, that the fortune of Mr. Taylor >> suffered so considerably, that he was at length induced to return to >> Durham >> to repair it. >> >> In October, 1775, he was again elected a delegate to the provincial >> assembly in Pennsylvania, and in the following month was appointed, in >> connection with several other gentlemen, to report a set of instructions >> to >> the delegates, which the assembly had just appointed to the continental >> congress. >> >> The circumstances of the colony of Pennsylvania, were at this time, in >> some respects, peculiar. She was far less oppressed than the other >> colonies >> in America. On the contrary, she had been greatly favored by his British >> majesty. Her government, which was proprietary, was administered without >> the >> least political oppression, and her constitution was free and liberal. >> >> In consequence of these, and other circumstances, a strong reluctance >> prevailed in Pennsylvania to sever the bonds of union between herself and >> the mother country. Hence, the measures of her public bodies were >> characterized by a more obvious respect for the British government than >> the >> measures of other colonies. This might be inferred from the instructions >> reported at this time, by Mr. Taylor and his associates, and adopted by >> the >> assembly: "The trust reposed in you is of such a nature, and the modes of >> executing it may be so diversified, in the course of your deliberations, >> that it is scarcely possible to give you particular instructions >> respecting >> it. We, therefore, in general, direct that you, or any four of you, meet >> in >> congress the delegates of the several colonies now assembled in this >> city, >> and any such delegates as may meet in congress next year; that you >> consult >> together on the present critical and alarming state of public affairs ; >> that >> you exert your utmost endeavors to agree upon, and recommend such >> measures >> as you shall judge to afford the best prospect of obtaining redress of >> American grievances, and restoring that union and harmony between Great >> Britain and the colonies, so essential to the welfare and happiness of >> both >> countries. >> >> "Though the Oppressive measures of the British parliament and >> administration have compelled us to resist their violence by force of >> arms, >> yet we strictly enjoin you, that you, in behalf of this colony dissent >> from, >> and utterly reject any propositions, should such be made, that may cause >> or >> lead to a separation from our mother country, or a change of the form of >> this government." >> >> During the winter and spring of 1776, a great change was effected in >> public sentiment in the province of Pennsylvania, on the subject of the >> contest between the mother country and the colonies. Hence the provincial >> assembly rescinded their former instructions to their delegates in >> congress, >> and while they expressed an ardent desire for the termination of the >> unhappy >> controversy, they were unwilling to purchase peace by a dishonorable >> submission to arbitrary power. "We, therefore," said the assembly, in >> their >> instructions to their delegates in congress, "authorize you to concur >> with >> the other delegates in congress, in forming such further compacts between >> the united colonies, concluding such treaties with foreign kingdoms and >> states, and in adopting such other measures as upon a view of all >> circumstances, shall be judged necessary for promoting the liberty, >> safety, >> and interests of America; reserving to the people of this colony the sole >> and exclusive right of regulating the internal government and police of >> the >> same. >> >> "The happiness of these colonies has, during the whole course of this >> fatal controversy, been our first wish. Their reconciliation with Great >> Britain our next. Ardently have we prayed for the accomplishment of both. >> But if we must renounce the one or the other, we humbly trust in the >> mercies >> of the Supreme Governor of the universe, that we shall not stand >> condemned >> before his throne, if our choice is determined by that overruling law of >> self-preservation, which His divine wisdom has thought fit to implant in >> the >> hearts of his creatures." >> >> Fortunately for the cause of American liberty, the change in public >> sentiment above alluded to, continued to spread, and on taking the great >> question of a declaration of independence, an approving vote by all the >> colonies was secured in its favor. The approbation of Pennsylvania, >> however, >> was only obtained by the casting vote of Mr. Morton, as has already been >> mentioned in our biographical notice of that gentleman. On the, 20th of >> July, the Pennsylvania convention proceeded to a new choice of >> Representatives. Mr. Morton, Dr. Franklin, Mr. Morris, and Mr. Wilson, >> who >> had voted in favor of the declaration of independence, were re-elected. >> Those who had opposed it were at this time dropped, and the following >> Gentlemen were appointed in their place, viz.: Mr. Taylor, Mr. Ross, Mr. >> Clymer, Dr. Rush, and Mr. Smith. These latter Gentlemen were consequently >> not present on the fourth of July, when the declaration was passed and >> proclaimed, but they had the honor of affixing their signatures to the >> engrossed copy, on the second of August following, at which time the >> members >> generally signed it. >> >> Mr. Taylor retired from congress in 1777, from which time we know >> little >> of his history. He settled at Easton, where he continued to manage his >> affairs with much success, and to repair his fortune, which had greatly >> suffered during his residence on the banks of the Lehigh.
