4 GEORGE TAYLOR, son of Edward Taylor, I, was born Dec. 16, 1684; married, in 1708, Helena Johnstone, of Southampton, L. I. She was commonly spoken of as "Old Hile." He died, in Middletown, in 1758. There still remains in the family some old silver marked with their joint initials GTH.
In 1710, he was the administrator of his father's estate, and succeeded to the home- stead at Garret's Hill, in Middletown, N. J.
1724. George Taylor sued Obadiah Stillwell for a debt of £17-11-4.
Freehold Court Records.
In 1729, he erected, at Garret's Hill, a dwelling of then uncommon size, called the Mansion House, and the same season built the Old Taylor House, now standing on the highway, in the village of Middletown, just East of Christ Church, and a similar, but larger one, long known as the "Old Tavern," in the front of the residence and by the side of the lane extending from the highway up to the house of Charles I. Hendrickson, Esq., deceased, in Middletown.
From 1727 to 1739/40, he kept a tavern and was a merchant, probably conducting his business in the last above mentioned building.
1744, Apr. 5. George Taylor kept a tavern and sold liquor to James Bowne.
George Taylor signed his name Taylor, Talor and Talar; the last, perhaps, being the most common.
It is not unlikely that he remained in the "Old Tavern" until his death in 1758; he was certainly there as late as 1746.

5 WILLIAM TAYLOR, son of Edward Taylor, I, was born Oct. 25, 1688; mar- ried Hannah Grover. He settled at Freehold, N. J.
Asher Taylor, Esq., inclined to the belief that Hannah Grover was a daughter of James Grover. I would assign her to Safety Grover and explain her son's name, Safety, as his namesake and not as Asher Taylor does, who said he was named such after his father's safe return from a voyage to England. Further, Hannah Grover's children were the legatees of James Grover, son of Safety Grover.
1767, Aug. 3. Will of William Taylor, of Freehold, sic, etc .; proved Oct. 12, 1767, mentioned:
wife, Hannah, to whom he gave the use of the dwelling house, etc., and negro Caesar and wench Jean to live with his wife; son, William Taylor, received the plantation; son, Edward Taylor, received £5 to bar him; five surviving daughters, one of whom was Martha, wife of John Shepherd, who received £40; two deceased daughters, their shares to go to their children.

6 JOHN TAYLOR, son of Edward Taylor, I, was born June 17, 1690, or 1691 [record worn], and died, about 1721, in Middletown. He married Sarah, daughter of Richard Hartshorne, the First, born 3, 7mo., 1687, by whom he had his issue.
John Taylor resided at the time of his death, in 1721, on land belonging to the estate of his father, Edward Taylor, the Immigrant, previously owned by Peter Van de Venter, and afterwards, in 1736, owned by George Taylor, merchant. I think the "Old Tavern," nearly opposite Christ Church, in Middletown, was the place, although it was apparently built in 1729.
1722, Mch. II. James Seabrook made an order on George Taylor to pay William .

Edward Taylor, commonly called "Edward Taylor, Esq.," was an active, intelli- gent man, possessed of a liberal education.
In 1768, 1772 and 1774, he was a Member of the Assembly.
At the commencement of the Revolution, he was among those active in raising supplies to aid the Boston people in their effort to avoid taxation without representation. This activity gained him the animosity of his Tory neighbors, who tried to have him impeached and his property confiscated. For prudential reasons, he then became less active, but was arrested several times and had great difficulty in keeping out of trouble,

first from one party, then the other. He succeeded in navigating through the storm and was eventually able to transmit his large estate to his descendants.
Among other pieces of real estate Edward Taylor owned was 1/320 of the Province of East New Jersey, which was a Proprietary right bought by him, in 1749, of John Lippit, who succeeded to it, as heir of his mother, Sarah, daughter of John Throck- morton, who was entitled to 1/3 of her father's 1/10 of 1/48 of the said province; and from Thomas Stillwell, Jr., son of Alice, daughter of John Throckmorton and sister of Sarah Lippit, his like share, heired from his mother, which gave Edward Taylor 33 of 1/10 of I/48, or 1/320 part of the whole province.
Edward Taylor resided in the house erected by his father, in 1729, which still stands on the highway of Middletown, East of Christ Church.
In 1758, upon the death of his father, he succeeded him in the "Old Tavern," where he likewise kept store and tavern. He also built and ran the mill, since known as "Arrowsmith's mill," and his business interests became varied and extensive.

27 JOHN TAYLOR, son of George Taylor, 4, was born in 1715 or 1716, and died, at Perth Amboy, N. J., Nov. 23, 1798. He married Phebe, sister and heiress of Gen. Nathaniel Heard, of New Jersey. She died, July 10, 1791, aged about eighty-three years, and was buried in the Lippit Burying-ground.
John Taylor was commonly known as "Squire Taylor," to distinguish him from other members of the family.
He owned a farm of some two hundred acres which he sold before the Revolutionary War, reserving about a dozen acres, upon which, in 1752, he erected a large, handsome house, at the head of the Main Street, in Middletown, at the commencement of the Deep Cut, which was denominated by his neighbors as "Taylor's Folly."
In 1782, this house was bought by George Crawford, Esq., from whom it passed to the Beekmans, and recently, December, 1891, was destroyed by fire. It seemingly would have stood for centuries. Its entire frame was of oak, and it showed no signs of wear. General Clinton was a frequent visitor there, during the Revolution, and Dr. Bainbridge, father of Commodore Bainbridge, there wooed and won his future wife.
John Taylor was a Sheriff, of Monmouth County, for many years, as also one of the Judges of the Court of Common Pleas, in Monmouth County, in 1761, and doubtless at other times.
Upon the breaking out of the Revolution, like many office holders, he became a persistent Loyalist, and was appointed, by Lord Howe, on his arrival in this country, to offer terms of reconciliation, "His Majesty's Lord High Commissioner, of New Jersey," in consequence of which, he was hunted by the Whigs. His property, not confiscated, but applied to public use, was paid for in Continental money, which depreciated, until

practically of no value, and left him poor, but for this he was recompensed by the British Government.
Capt. Edward Taylor, who was thirty years of age, when Squire Taylor died, and knew all about him, told Asher Taylor, Esq., that his claim, for losses, amounted to £12,000, far in excess of the actual figures, but nevertheless allowed by the British government, which no doubt influenced Burke to say that he was a man of large estates and had made great sacrifices in the Revolutionary War for the Royal cause, and which, Asher Taylor, Esq., commenting upon, with tremendous Whig fervor, says, "was greatly exaggerated and pure gammon."
Warrant to Asher Holmes, Esq', for the apprehension of Jno. Taylor, Esq', of Middletown, and to convey him before the Council of Safety, at Bordentown, on April II.

66 WILLIAM TAYLOR, son of Joseph Taylor, 9, married Lucy Embly, by license dated Dec. 3, 1768. The license reads: Wm Taylor, of Upper Freehold, and Lucy Quiley. The name, no doubt, is spelled incorrectly by copyists. He removed from Upper Free- hold to Bainbridge, Ross County, Ohio, about 1801. He was living in 1803.
