THANK YOU BETTY FOR YOUR INFORMATION . My gr-gr-grandfather Zebedee Taylor born 1805 is the one who had a sister named Temperance Taylor and he named his daughter Temperance , I think it is an unusual name , just like my grgrgrandfather's name Zebedee athough it comes from the bible. Far as I know we don't have a Levi Taylor as of yet,but you never know. I haven't proved it yet but I was sent that Samuel Taylor's father was Richard Taylor and his mother was Ellen McDaniel no dates on either one yet.But my family came from KY,NC., TN., MO. and I think even some went to AL., AR., and OK..Are Indian hertiage came from the Grooms they were full-blooded Cherokee.
