Zachary Taylor 12th PresidentIllegitimate children.
My Name is William Arthur Taylor b1944 and I am the result of a relationship alleged between Zachary Taylor and a Mulatto Slave whose name unfortunately we do not know. The story comes from both my brother and my Granny Coates who has reportedly recorded the story as she made it her business to get all the history of the men her daughters married.
The story starts with an arrangement made between Zachary Taylor and his wife Margaret Smith. She had apparently agreed to give him a son and upon the birth of their sixth child Richard, Margaret cut Zachary off not wanting to risk further child birth. Weather this is true or not is only left to ones imagination but it is recorded that when Zachary became president his wife would not perform the normal duties of First Lady and these tasks fell to one of Zachary’s daughters, Mary Elizabeth. It might indicate that all was not well in the Taylor family but divorce was not yet a common thing and it was better to remain married if only in name.
Zachary had opportunity as he was both a plantation owner and also a slave owner at the time. He had one plantation called Cypress Grove and a home on what is now the State Capital Grounds in Baton Rouge, LA. According to published material Zachary treated his black slaves more as servants than slaves and was not troubled with runaways nor problems of that type. He is reported to have never sold a slave and indeed had many old slaves on his plantation. One account from some Europeans traveling to Cypress Grove is that slavery at Cypress Grove was asidyllic as it ever could be. According to the story from Granny Coates, Zachary purchased a Mulatto slave in New Orleans from the Caribbean for personal duties.Accordingly in about 1835 a child was born called William Henry Taylor.While Richard was sent off to school in the East, William Henry stayed with his father as personal Bat boy or Valet to the General. It is my intention some day to look in military records to see if there is any mention. Given time I will spend some time in Washington and again Baton Rouge where the State Library has a good research section on Zachary and where I have spent some time doing research along with the museum from Zachary at the Pentagon Barracks next door. The story according to the research Librarian and another Zachary Taylor researcher is very plausible and it was not uncommon for slave owners to mix white blood with black. There was some notion at the time that some white blood mixed with the black made for a better slave.
Upon investigation it was lurned that Zachary’s records went to Richard’s plantation after 1850 and that the plantation was sacked by the Union Army during the Civil War and the records were dispersed. A connection if recorded in the Live Stock records of Zachary’s plantation do not exist.
To continue with the story, when Zachary was convinced to run for President it was decided that William Henry would not be an asset in Washington society so prior to the election it was arranged that a traveling party of diplomats going to Kingston, Ontario would take the young son into Canada. Kingston at the time was the Capital of Canada. The party apparently traveled west to Hamilton, Ontario and set William Henry up there. They returned to the USA and no one was the wiser that they had left one of their party behind.
According to the 1871 census William Henry was born about 1835 in the USA and was of African descent. He was not very dark and apparently married a Canadian Girl, Anne Hoare of about 16 years younger and their first child in 1869 was my Grandfather William Arthur Taylor. At one point it was believed by my brother that William Henrymarried a Miss Trafford as one of his children carried the Trafford name but upon further investigation it is now fairly sure that Miss Trafford was never married to William but was in fact a very trusted governess of the family and her name was added to one of the children out of respect for her. This is born out in the Ontario marriage records and by personal information from my mother.William Arthur along with two of his brothers and two of his sisters out of a family of 12 moved in the early 1900’s to Winnipeg, Manitoba. Now this family must have come into some money as it is reported that all the children received university degrees. A note in the genealogy stated in later years that William Henry made a lot of trips to New York. This does not mean much in itself but later I learned that after the Civil War Richard Taylor settled in New York until his death in 1879. Was there a connection to this? One may never know. As both sons of Richard had died early in life, William Henry’s sons were the only ones left to carry on the family line.
While doing research in Baton Rouge it was noted the close family resemblance between Zachary and My grandfather and now my brother. Even the signature of my Grandfather and Zachary looked similar. Non of these things constitutes what one might call proof of the connection as non of us were there at the time and the records are incomplete but it looks correct. Our next step is some DNA testing which is being investigated at this time.
At the current time I have chosen to connect our Taylor family to that of Zachary Taylor for the following reasons,
1-Strong family stories and beliefs
2-Strong family resemblance’s and social traits
3-possibility of it occurring being possable.
4-people in the right places at the right times.
To quote the research librarian at the Louisiana State Library, "How would a family from Winnipeg, Manitoba have such a detailed story of this if there was not some truth to it."
The hard evidence may never be found and we continue to do research were ever possable and remain open to finding proof either supporting or disproving the allegations.
I have included the Gen. report from Zachary down 4 generations. There are more.
