• Notes

  Margaret McKay's date of birth is June 28 on her tombstone and on JET's family group sheet for her father. It is June 24 on JET's pedigree sheet. The source for Je 24 is the obituary in the local paper. Obituary form the Palmyra Spectator, 1888 "Mrs. Margaret J. Taylor, who died at the residence of her son, J.F. Taylor, on the 8th inst., was born in Page county, Virginia, June 28th, 1817. In 1835 she moved to this county, where she has since made her home. She was married to Caleb Taylor, deceased, in May 1837. In the fall of 1853 Mrs. Taylor united with the Baptist church at Bethel, and has always been a faithful and devoted Christian. She was a loving wife and fond mother, and was the idol of her children, in whose hearts her palce can never be filled. Mrs. Taylor was widely known in this county, and numbered her friends by the score. She was a nole[sic. "noble"?] woman, whose death is greatly deplored.
