The obit of Sarah Taylor dated 05 June 1881 indicates she was 78 years old so I would like
to correct the previous post in which I have her birth year as ca 1811. It should be ca
1803. The obit reads as follows - "New Albany Daily Ledger - One of the pioneer
women of Floyd County, Mrs. Sarah Ann Taylor, died Saturday evening at her residence in
the southern suburb of the city, aged 78 years. She was a good woman, a sincere
Christian. She was the mother of Mr. Perry Taylor, the well known fisherman. Her funeral
took place yesterday evening."
Isaac Taylor's will was probated in Floyd Co., IN on 15 Oct 1857 but I never found the
actual will, just that it was probated. I believe both are buried at Fairview Cemetery.
I know that Isaac is buried in Plat 3, Row 4, Lot 9. The date of his burial was 18 Mar
1854.
