Wife listed as Elizabeth Taylor in NSDAR 45408 - Phebe Rhodes Dresser, born in Urbana, IL; wife of Herman L. Dresser
Did you see in one of the old DAR applications a statement to the effect that Elizabeth Taylor or Frances Taylor (wife of Nicholas Rhoades, mother of Walter) was a first cousin of Zachary Taylor? I have always been curious about this.
411Martin M. Harry’s bio from the 1918 History of Champaign County, also states that Mrs. Harry’s (Jemima M. Boyd) gr-grandmother was a first cousin to President Zachary Taylor. That would be Elizabeth/Frances Taylor, wife of Nicholas Rhoades.

Misc. Notes
Prior to Clifton, the family resided in Montgomery County, MD, very near (or on) the Frederick County line. They resided near the small town of Hyattstown. On a map you can quickly locate it along the main road midway between Frederick and Washington on the Montgomery/Frederick County line.
