Arthur Orison Taylor was the third of four offspring of the Reverend Ora James Taylor and his wife Abbey Patience Taylor; the confluence of two TAYLOR ancestral lines. He was a son, a father, an author, a manufacturer, a philanthropist… and a genealogist. His purpose in writing this manuscript was to document the lineage of both his parents’ TAYLOR families as far back as possible. The manuscript, finished in 1923, was never published, but was handed down to his son Spencer, and then to his granddaughter Marguerite, who passed it to her son-in-law a few years before she died, asking him to take care of it, likely because he was an avid genealogist… possibly the first in the family since Arthur. This is Arthur’s manuscript… gently edited and enhanced, and published for his descendants.
