Notes for Henry G. TAYLOR

Biographical Sketch (1893):1316, p. 648. "Henry G. Taylor was born on a farm situated about one and one-half miles north of Washington, Penn., after some years moving with his parents to Smith township. In February, 1870, he was united in marriage with Susan Scott, who was born in 1840, daughter of Benjamin Scott, of Hanover township, this county, a representative of a pioneer family. They resided in Hanover township a short time after their marriage, and April 1, 1871, came to their present home in Smith township, this county, near the Jefferson township line. He has followed farming, stock raising and dairying. On June 18, 1883, the farm was visited by a cyclone, which devastated the neighborhood. His barn was thrown down, the house unroofed, and the outbuildings completely destroyed. But he set to work with undaunted energy, and soon from out the ruins arose a handsome new residence, the other damage being repaired as rapidly as possible. In political opinion Henry G. Taylor is a counselor and adviser of the Democratic party in his locality, and he frequently held offices of honor and trust to the utmost satisfaction of all concerned. He and his estimable wife are supporters and attendants of the Presbyterian Church at Burgettstown. Their family consists of one daughter--Sarah Oliver--a bright girl of twelve summers, who adorns and cheers their home, and who possesses some skill as a musician."
