Surname: Taylor, Jain, Fitzgerald, George, Myers, Hannis
-------------------------
I am looking for my grandmother's cousin, Ward Emerson Taylor, born in
Vevay Indiana in November 27, 1882. He married Madeline Fitzgerald and
moved out west (or vice versa). He became an optometrist in Reno, Washoe
County, Nevada. His parents were Mary Jain (1847 - 1920) and John G Taylor
(1847 - 1897). (After she was widowed, Mary Jain married Frank Yeager and
moved to California.)
Ward Taylor and my grandmother were double cousins because my grandmother
was the daughter of Frank Taylor and Anna Jain, brother and sister of Ward's
parents. My grandmother was Clara Robertine Taylor who married Everett
George.
Further, Ward's sister was Jessie Hannis Taylor (where William Hannis (War
of 1812) and his father Henry Hannis (1757-1835, Revolutionary War) had
married into Taylor family. Jessie Hannis Taylor was born in 1884 and married
Edgar J. Myers and they lived in Reno, Washoe County, where one or th other
wsa an optometrist.
Please help me in finding information. I posted here previously, in February,
and the message lasted one week at least, but since was lost. When were
the February messages lost? Thank you for your help. Hopefully, your computer
problems will be solved.
