Mike:
I am also a TAYLOR descendant. I have a copy of the book "From Log Cabins to the White House -- A History of the Taylor Family", by Mary TAYLOR BREWER, 1985. I couldn't find any of the names you mentioned in the book, but the book does include President Zachary TAYLOR's line which you mentioned in your previous posting.
See the following site: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/t/i/l/Susan-E-Tilleman/GENE11-0026.html .
Within that site:
1. See Generation 13, Person 5220 John TAYLOR, and his 6 children.
2. See Generation 12, Person 2610, John TAYLOR, Person 2611 Alice GASCOYNE, and their 6 children. I am descended from their eldest child, Elizabeth TAYLOR who married Edmund BASYE.
The book also goes two generations further back. I only took the report of my ancestors which appears on my homepage "back to the beach", in other words, to the generation of my earliest immigrant ancestors to America. Person 5220 John TAYLOR, mentioned above, was s/o Thomas TAYLOR (pages 12, 30 in the TAYLOR book). Thomas was s/o of Dr. Rowland TAYLOR (page 10 in the TAYLOR book), who was martyred (burned at the stake) in 1555, Hadleigh, England, for his Protestant faith.
According to the book, three United States Presidents are descended from this TAYLOR family. The book gives the following lineages for those Presidents, starting with Person 5220 John TAYLOR mentioned above, called "Immigrant John" in the book. I only listed the key page numbers for following the lineages in the book. These individuals also appear on additional pages, too.
