1807.
CHARLES WILEY TAYLOR was born in Norwalk (now Westport), Conn., Jan. 11, 1786, and died Dec. 5, 1865, in the house where he was born. He was the youngest son of Ahijah [sic] and Isabella (Wiley) Taylor, who were farmers. He studied medicine, soon after graduation, with Dr. David Richmond, of Saugatuck village (now Westport), and then for a while practiced in his native town. About 1811, he removed to Florida, Orange County, N. Y , where he also practiced medicine and taught school, Hon. Wm. H. Seward being one of his pupils. After three or four years, his health becoming impaired, he returned to Westport, where he spent the rest of his life, mainly in agricultural pursuits. He was several times a representative in the State Legislature. He was never married.
