Some Account of the Taylor Family (Originally Taylard) (Classic Reprint) by Peter Alfred Taylor PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Some Account of the Taylor Family (Originally Taylard) In 1846, all that was then known was embodied by my father in the pedigree of that date (now in my possession), and from that time the matter rested until the year 1862, when it was resumed by myself, with the valuable assistance of Colonel Joseph Lemuel Chester, a well - known American archaologist. The introduction to Colonel Chester occurred in 1862. In July of that year, I made a speech in the House of Commons on the American War, against a proposal for intervention in the interest of the South. Colonel Chester wrote expressing his warm approbation and thanks, and asking for any information in regard to our family which might be interesting in the United States, and which he might'make use of as a cor respondent of the American press. This led to further communications, 'and to the offer by the Colonel to take note of anything relating to the family history that might come in his way in the course of his archaological researches. How valuable and interesting has been the information thus obtained will be seen in the following pages. There was at that time no thought of printing; but, as a result of the multifarious inquiries and researches we have made, I find myself the depositary of an amount of knowledge of facts relating to the family, such as probably never before was possessed by any individual member thereof, and which it is highly improbable that any one hereafter would take the trouble (or have convenient opportunity) of collating and preserving, if I do not. All the old letters, too, and documents have, in the search for facts, been read either by myself or by my friend and secretary Mr Grant, who has gone into the matter for me eon amore; thus affording a chance, never likely to recur, of extracting from them what is interesting or characteristic of the writers and their times. There is, I think, much that is interesting for its own sake, and without reference to family associations; I have therefore resolved to place these family records in the lasting character of print - of course, only for private circulation. I do not intend to attempt anything of a biographical, char acter in regard either to my own or the previous generation - the task would be too delicate. But we live in a writing age, and should any of the family in the year nineteen hundred and something feel any call to add a second volume: they will probably be rather embarrassed by the quantity than by the deficiency of the materials. With these few words of introduction, I now proceed to give the results of Colonel Chester's researches, which were embodied by him in the following report.
