Story from the U.S., Sons of the American Revolution Membership Application made by Archibald Alexander Taylor
My Great Grandfather, William Taylor, served as Private in Captain Bateman Lloyd's Company 2nd Regiment New Jersey Continental Line, also acting as wagon master for 3 to 5 years during the war of the Revolution. He came from Monmouth Co., New Jersey, where he was born and reared and bought a farm near Bainbridge, Ross Co., Ohio about the year 1800 having spent a year or 2 in Kentucky en route, where his dwelling with all his papers and records were burned, including as he declared his army discharge. He resided with his own son, Jonathan, on his own farm until his death August 24, 1830. His grandson, Alexander (son of Jonathan), residing on the same farm was a lad and rearing youth during this period. He testifies (Oct. 1895) that he often heard his grandfather talk at great length of his experience in the army. He claimed, "William Taylor served 3 years in the Revolution. He said that he was a wagon master and wore out a wagon and team of horses of his own in the service." Alexander's recollections are vivid and distinct. Also Mrs. Emily J. (Taylor) Houston (daughter of Joseph, son of above William Taylor) whose farm adjoined that of his father) testified, "I have often heard my mother talk about Grandfather being in the Revolution & of British soldiers coming to the house and her hiding valuables to keep the British from getting them. She said, "We had some neighbors who were called Tories & I was led to think they were not fit associates of Federalists. Also Dr. John Wilson of Washington C.H., Ohio (son of Lucy, dau. of said William Taylor) states his distinct recollection of hearing his mother talk of her father's service in the Revolution. - Therre seems to be no doubt whatever that such were his own statements & that his family had sufficient reason to believe them to be true. Such is also the universal tradition among his descendents. In addition, note the following from the official records of New Jersey. - "State of Office of ADJ. Gen. Trenton, June 18, 1894. It is certified that the records of this office show that William Taylor served as Private in Captain Bateman Lloyd's 2nd RegimentN. J. Continental Line during the Revolutionary War. William S.

Stryker adds in a private note: From all the data which I can attain it appears he served from 1778, when the 2nd Reg was organized to 1783 when it was disbanded."
We have every reason to believe said William was our ancestor from correspondence of names, locality - circumstances. this statement has been prepared by Rev A.A.E.
