Well, here's the story...I found a piece of paper in my Grandma's old boxes which gave the following info.
1. James Taylor, settled in VA in 1682
2. James Taylor Jr. m. Martha Thompson
This is where the branches split...one leads to Pres. Zachary Taylor...the other, assuming this is reliable info, lead to me...
3. ? Taylor
4. Prudence Taylor m. Abner Petterson
5. Aaron Petterson m. Mary (Workman or Prudence...don't know which one's correct) Carnes
6. Prudence Mariah Peterson m. Abraham B. Jetmore
The entire family history is spead across NJ, PA, and then IN...the dates fit too...(I'd give them to you right now, only I forgot them at my parent's house...oops!)
The only major discrepancy is Prudence (or Maria's) name...I tend to think that this new info. is dependable, because of my previous theory, but I'd still like to see more proof...does this look familiar to anyone?? Let me know...thanks!
