'Wife of Claborn Taylor; dau. Richard & Elizabeth Foster.'" They are buried in Shane Cemetery and with them are interred a good number of their children and other members of their family. There might be others buried in Maury County. There are Taylors listed on more than 30 pages of MAURY COUNTY, TENNESSEE CEMETERIES. If you do not have this book, MAURY COUNTY, TENNESSEE CEMETERIES, you might want to acquire a copy. I still have them for sale. Send a check for $45.00 (includes postage) to Fred L. Hawkins, 509 Pawnee Tr., Columbia, TN 38401 and I'll get you the two-volume set off right away. Lottaluck with your research. Fred.
