Hello Jerrald, Are you also a descendant of John W. G. Taylor and Mary Lake? Along with the names you listed, I also have Albert Taylor and George Washington Taylor. The info on George W. Taylor came from his great-granddaughter Sharon Rice. I will look up the information she sent concerning his birth and send it to you, I don't have it handy right now. The 1880 U.S. census for Spring Valley, Fillmore Co., MN (page 437B) shows Albert J. Taylor, age 5, b. MN, so he was born about 1875. Francis (Frank) Taylor was 12, so he was born about 1868 in IA. Marrietta was 14, so she was born about 1866, b. in IA. Charles was 18, so he was born about 1862 in CT. Mirtie Taylor was age 8, so she was born about 1876 in MN. This makes 12 children so far. I am interested in contacting descendants of as many of Elizabeth Jane Taylor's siblings as I can to see what information each line has concerning John W.G. Taylor's and Mary Lake's ancestry. I know where each of them were born. I have info on the parents of each, but can't find the info for Mary Lake right now, other than that she, along with at least her daughter Elizabeth Jane, was born in Methyr Tidryl, Wales. Need to go through my files again. I know John W. Gibson Taylor's parents, George Taylor and Mary Ann Small lived in Carolgate, East Retford, Nottinghamshire, England in the 1840 census. George was listed as a Veterinary Surgeon in the censuses until the last one which shows 'publican', meaning tavern owner.
