I am a descendants of 1 - Nathaniel Taylor, 2 - Nathaniel Francis Taylor, 3 - Nathaniel Franklin Taylor, and my grandfather -- 4 - Edgar Thomas Taylor (twin to Edwin William Taylor). I have a lot of information on most of the four generations above, as well as the Hammond, Wright and Haskell families.

As you can see below, I do have geneology voids that I have not been able to fill. I would like to compare data that anyone has on these lines. The children are not in the correct order, as I do not have dates on some. I have been unable to trace Nathaniel Taylor beyond what is given below. Hope this helps you get started/restarted.
