TAYLOR, George – I am looking for information on my TAYLOR line. My TAYLOR line contains Native Americans, Choctaws. My line goes back to January 3, 1773. George TAYLOR was born on Jan. 3, 1773 and married Nancy Cooper on October 4, 1796. George died on September 12, 1854. George and Nancy had 7 children. It is said that the beginning of this family was in Birmingham, AL (or somewhere in Jefferson County, near Birmingham). After George TAYLOR is William TAYLOR, born August 3, 1799, died December 14, 1867 and married Waitstill BROWN in 1824. Waitstill BROWN died in 1841, prior to William’s second marriage to Martha Loggins on December 18, 1841. Then comes along the real beginning of this family with Benjamin D. TAYLOR (D could be for Drake) born August 25, 1824 in Alabama. Benjamin married Rhonda HALL on October 3, 1844. Very little is known about Rhonda. All we know is that she was born circa 1825. Benjamin died on April 28, 1892 and Rhonda died on October 8, 1892. They were buried in the Oak Hill Cemetery. Benjamin and Rhonda had at least 12 children.
John Clark TAYLOR, born November 22, 1855, died on January 28, 1934, and married Lucy Carlisle RICE on November 25, 1885 in Montgomery County, Arkansas. Lucy Carlisle RICE was born on September 17, 1859 in Mississippi and died on June 21, 1943. They had 6 children. Leander M. TAYLOR, who was called Lee, comes down to my g-g-grandfather. Leander was born on December 26, 1894 in Caddo Gap, AR. He married Eula Foe GADEN on November 11, 1914. Eula died on March 28, 1955. Leander died on April 11, 1981. Next comes Ovie Elizabeth TAYLOR/CALDWELL/WEAVER. Then Edward Lee CALDWELL -> Thomas Calvin CALDWELL -> Erica Lindsey CALDWELL (me!).
I thank you for taking the time to read this. I forget to say that I’m 13 years old, but this info you may have may help me in life! God Bless, Erica Lindsey CALDWELL, 1458 Highway 27 South, Mineral Springs AK 71851. [posted April 11, 2006]

TOBBE – I am very interested in the surname TOBBE. My great-grandmother, Almira Sophronia Gertrude Bickers married a man named Joseph Victor Tobbe, who is, of course, my great-grandfather. I can find no records thus far of him. Any help would be most appreciated. My grandmother, Thelma Tobbe, was born in 1913, so the marriage of her parents would have been prior to 1913, but I am not sure which year.

TOWE, William R. – Looking for any records regarding William R. TOWE. 1900 census: W. R. TOWE in Jefferson Co. (b. AL, 26)wife Belle [nee White], 24, son Clyde, 1. (m. 2 yrs.) ADAH doesn’t find their marriage record in Jefferson Co. Belle was b. in Franklin Co., AL; was there in 1880. I can’t find ANYTHING about Will TOWE’s family before 1900. I don’t see their marriage in Franklin, Marion, Winston or Tuscaloosa Co. Kids Clyde and May were born in Adger. I’m almost certain my great-grandmother (May) told me he was William R. TOWE “Jr.” I see no candidates in Alabama in 1880. But, this name does tend to get mauled in transcriptions. Anyway, I’m wondering if any Jefferson Co., voter registration, tax records, etc. exist. Also, do any county level birth records (delayed or otherwise) exist for children Clyde (b. Apr. 18, 1899) Ella May (b. May 23, 1902) and Mabel (b. Dec. 3, 1904) TOWE. I realize they might not have been named in the record. Will TOWE supposedly died in a mining accident on Jan. 29, 1907. I am certainly willing to hire a professional researcher to assist me.
