General Notes: Husband - Robert Taylor

---

He grew up at home, acquiring his education in the common schools. At the age of eighteen or twenty he engaged in the tanning business in the vicinity of Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He carried on this business for a number of years, and then came to West Newton and engaged in the lumber and the grain business, in which he prospered. In 1895, in company with W. S. Van Dyke and S. C. Weimer, he organized the banking firm of Van Dyke, Weimer and Taylor, which became the leading banking institution of that section of the county. They sold the business to the First National Bank in 1899. In politics Mr. Taylor was a staunch Republican, and served nine years as a school director, but refused other offices which were tendered him. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and its treasurer for many years.
