Dear Wanda; Well....... I don't know.. but here is a message from the archives dated 1990 ( almost 12 years). There is an earlier one but I'm not sure of it's validity. By mid 1996 the messages were ranging from about a 100/month up to 250/month. I was not questioning the fact that Bryan was list admin for a period. I was only stating that the list had been in existance prior to him. Best Regards John A Hansen List Admin "From: "Joseph F. Stegall" <joesteg@westal.net> Subject: [TAYLOR-L] JOHN M. TAYLOR, NC>AL, 1830s Date: Wed, 04 Jul 1990 17:16:27 -0500 I am stuck and need lots of help. My John M. Taylor lived for awhile in old Dobbs Co. NC because his daughter Penelope K. Taylor was born there in 1824. He migrated to west Alabama and died there. That is the sum total of all that I know about him. Can anybody help me learn more about this family? Thanks for your time and effort!
