Levi Taylor in the 1820’s likely in Bradford Co., Pennsylvania; d. 30 May 1840, unknown location. Elisabeth was the daughter of Isaac Miller and Catharina SIPLEY Miller whom resided for much of their lives in Ridgebury Twp., Bradford Co., Pennsylvania. Before Elisabeth’s untimely death at age 33 she gave birth to at least two children named Benjamin Woodbury Taylor and Polly Manning TAYLOR. A few of Elisabeth’s siblings migrated from Bradford Co., Pennsylvania to Fond Du Lac Co., Wisconsin in the mid-1800’s. I have researched online data for evidence of Levi Taylor and Benjamin Taylor in Wisconsin.

I’m searching for information about the place of death and burial of Elisabeth MILLER Taylor (1809-1840). Also, I’m hoping to confirm the aforementioned Taylor persons in Fond Du Lac County are the husband and son of Elisabeth MILLER Taylor. Any information about Elisabeth, husband Levi, and offspring Benjamin or Polly or others would be much appreciated. Paul E. Newell Ellicott City, MD
