Here's what it has to say about your E. T. Taylor... E. T. TAYLOR, farmer, Secs. 20, 21, 28 and 29; P. O. Mukwonago. Mr. Taylor is descended from a genuine pioneer family; his grandfather, one of Connecticut's Revolutionary heroes, settled, soon after the close of the war, in Vermont; at the last stages of the journey, his brave wife, on snowshoes, carried her son, Gideon M., into that then new State, where they sometimes actually suffered hunger; G. M. Taylor grew to manhood, married Phoebe Walbridge, and, in 1829, settled on an Indian reservation in Genesee Co.; his cabin was built in a forest, so dense that the supplies were, at first, brought in to his family on his back; he was three miles from any settlement, but cut a road, cleared his farm, and, today this is one of the most valuable farms in the county. E. T. Taylor was born in Wolcott, Lamoille Co., Vt., Oct. 31, 1821, grew up in Genesee Co., and married in the town of Alabama, Jan. 14, 1846, Miss Isabel, daughter of Walter and Jane (Christie) Irving; they came to Wa! ukesha Co. in the spring of 1846, with a capital of health and resolution; Mr. Taylor worked out, in 1846, rented a farm in 1847, and bought 160 acres of his present farm in 1848, borrowing $200 to make the first payment. Beginning in a log shanty, he has, from that time, made a constant march of improvement, now owning 358 acres, with a large and tasteful farmhouse for a home, which is backed up by a number of substantial barns, for the use of the herds of Durham and Jersey cattle and the splendid Spanish merinos. Mr. Taylor is a Whig-Republican, and has been since 1840, and is a Congregationalist. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor have five children-Arthur I., M. Elizabeth, Warren E., Hattie I. and Homer E. Warren E. represents the fourth generation of this family of frontiersmen; he studied medicine in the State University of Wisconsin, graduated from the Chicago Medical College, and located in Downs, Osborn Co., Kan.; in July, 1879, he built the first business block in that live, new ! town, and is now in mercantile and banking business there.

Mr. Wambold married Miss Mary Barndt, by whom he has had five children – Henry, Josephine (Mrs. S. Gale), Milton, Leander and Charles (died April, 1879).

Homage from the "Land Down Under" (Lat 17.5s Long 146.4e) Hi to All, Can SKS please direct me to where I might find records of the Waukesha Police Department? I seek information on one Clarence (Tom?) BARROW (b. 1906) who I am told served with that Department. He is listed as a labourer in Fairfield, Jefferson Co in the 1920 census and died sometime before 1970. So his time with the Waukesha PD would have been during that period. And may that which you seek be found Dean Newman, North Queensland Australia. "As time goes by" kenyon@znet.net.au "We are who we are, because of who we were"
