ABNER
TAYLOR, New Baltimore; is a native of Crawford Co.,
Pa., and was born Oct. 29, 1818. He is a son of
John and Mary (Kirk) Taylor, who were natives
respectively of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and who were
parents of a family of ten - Samuel, Abigail, Joseph,
Aaron, Judith, Amy, Sarah, Levi, John and Abner -
are yet living. When the subject of this sketch was 8
years old, his father died, and two yeas later his mother
and family came to Marlborough Twp., where relatives had
preceded them. They located on Sec. 4 on the farm now
owned by our subject, it being all woods then, with the
exception of three acres. They here began pioneer life
in earnest, gradually clearing and improving the place as
years passed by. The mother died May 3, 1849.
Abner Taylor was reared principally in Marlborough Twp.
In July, 1844, he married Christiann Werner who bore
him six children - Joseph, Eliza, Isadore, John, Wilson
and Leora. Eliza is the only one dead.
Joseph married Belle Rogors, and lives in Indiana;
Isadore is the wife of D. Austin, and resides in
Marlborough Twp.; John married Maggie A. Bowman,
and lives in New Baltimore; the other two are single.
MR. Taylor has always retained the old farm on which
he still resides. Besides carrying on the farm, he
formed a partnership with his son John in September,
1871, under the firm name of A. Taylor & Son, dealers
in groceries, dry goods, &c., in New Baltimore. They
carry one of the largest stocks of general goods of any
house in the whole neighborhood. Mr. Taylor is
a Republican in politics, and he and his wife are members of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church. The Taylors
are old and honorable citizens of Marlborough Twp.
