Mary, I did the "spit kit" and mailed it off over the weekend.  Should be interesting to see what comes back.

Marleal have you dna tested at Ancestry or FTDNA?
My Taylor greatgrandfather from SC is my brick wall too. His name may have been some form of Zach, however, your Frank's birth and death dates are within the correct range. You can email me at mtrutledge@comporium.net.

My GrGrandfather was Frank Taylor, b1854 SC, d1894-99 TX. Does this line up or match with anybody's data? He's a brick wall for me.

I forgot the most important part of the comment below! My husband's Taylor family also have a story about a lost brother or brothers.

This Taylor is my husband's family. His cousin is convinced their Taylor come from SC. What I have found from documents shows something else. There is a Robert Taylor, b. 1808, KY, and we can't prove his parents. He moved to Illinois, Missouri, and Arkansas where he died in 1906. I suspect the family split up, probably in North Carolina, with some going to SC and some going west. By the way, you have found James Taylor. He is my son.

I am a descendant of Isaac Taylor. Everyone who has an interest in genealogy in my family has been searching for his brothers James and William for years without success.

Here is all we know about James and William:

All of the early history of the family has been lost,
except the fact that Isaac Taylor, with his two brothers.
James and William, came to Maryland, from England,
in the year 1757, before the Revolutionary war. After
which Isaac Taylor became separated from his brothers.
Where James and William settled is unknown to the
descendants of Isaac, who was the father of John Taylor.

Does anyone see a clue here?

Thanks, JB

It's quite possible, Margaret. My William Taylor had a son George and William's brother Lewis had a son George also. There seems to have been another George Taylor about their age in the area. Yours would be the age to have been his father, or uncle. My William Taylor lived in Marion County, SC, but was probably b. in NC. There are just so MANY Taylors. I just checked and there are 4 George Taylors in SC on the 1810 Census and 6 on the 1800 Census. My William seems to have been in SC by 1825 when a daughter was b. there. There were also Coopers in the area. We do not know our William's father's name, but his mother was (probably) a Lee.

Seeking info on my GGGgrandfather George Taylor, b. 3 Jan 1773 in SC (or possibily VA), married Nancy Cooper in 1796. Sons Casper, William, Issac, Harris; daughters Mary, Catherine, Rebecca Caroline. Died 12 Sept 1854 in Jefferson Co. AL. Moved to AL 1817. Daughter Rebecca Caroline married Pleasant Wear, which is my line. Is this Taylor related to the William you are researching?
