HISTORICAL MISCELLANY


76 JOHN TAYLOR, son of George Taylor, Io, married Ellen, daughter of Col. George Taylor. He removed to Nova Scotia, and probably died, at Weymouth, N. S., in 1820.


"William, John and George Taylor were in the Niagara District, Ontario, Canada, 1785-1790, and one of them made application for a Loyalist Grant stating he was of Middletown, N. J." Letter of A. H. Beach, attorney-at-law, 313 Oil Exchange, Casper, Wyoming. 3, 9, 1924. Mrs. Beach has the marriage license of her great-grandfather, Edward Taylor at Niagara, 1801, to Hannah Collard.

78 COLONEL GEORGE TAYLOR, son of Edward Taylor, 26, was born in 1733, and died, Mch. 4, 1799, aged 65 years, I month and 6 days.

She died, Jan. 15, 1814, aged 82 years, and, with her husband, is buried in the Lippit Burying-ground, Middletown, N. J.


In 1773, Colonel Taylor apparently resided on the old grandfather farm of John Taylor, but during the Revolutionary War, he resided in the village of Middletown, in the house next East of Christ Church, built by his grandfather, in 1729, and now, in 1907, the residence of his great-grandson, Henry Taylor, Esq.


In early life he was an officer in the Militia. On the breaking out of the Revolution, he was in the Continental service, commanding a battalion of detached militia; he refused to take the Oath of Allegiance, and in July, 1776, threw up his commission and entered the King's service, as Colonel, in the Loyal Volunteers.

TAYLOR OF MONMOUTH COUNTY, N. J.


where he continued to reside until his death. This property continued, by regular descent, in the occupancy of his children, until 1854, when it passed to his grand-daugh- ter, Mary H. Taylor, wife of Joseph D. Taylor, who built a fine mansion near the old residence. Both houses are yet, 1907, standing. The older, occupied by Mrs. Taylor's farmer, contains some fine specimens of hand carved wood, the mantel, in the tap room, perhaps being the most noteworthy. This farm was once part of the estate of Squire John Taylor, 27, who built the old house on it. He sold it to Barnardus Rider, of Long Island, reserving on the Southwest corner, a building site of fourteen acres.


In 1771, Rider conveyed the lands to Edward Taylor, 26, whose son, Col. George Taylor, resided on it in 1773. As conveyed to Edward Taylor, the farm was laid at two hundred and ten acres.


John Taylor, 79, was out several times in the provincial forces, for local duty, in the early part of the Revolutionary War.


In 1777, in conjunction with Daniel Hendrickson, he enlisted a soldier, as a sub- stitute, in the person of Henry Johnson, father of Lambert and Henry Johnson, who lived near Harmony, for a three year's term, in the Company of Capt. John Burrows', First Regiment of Monmouth Troops.
