HON. PHILIP R. TAYLOR was born where he now resides March 18, 1829; the
last of the six children of William M. and Mary H. (Osborn) Taylor.
William M. Taylor was born in Virginia, and was a son of Capt. Reuben
Taylor, a native of Virginia.  William M. Taylor was a physician, and
regarded as one of the most able medical men of his day.  He came to
Kentucky at quite an early day, and was married about the year 1811.  He
reared a family of five children, who ranked among the best citizens of
Oldham County.  Our subject was brought up on the farm, and received his
education principally from Bacon College and Funk's Seminary.  He chose
farming for an occupation in early life, and followed the same ever since,
and now has 300 acres of land under good improvements, with a fine
residence, barns, etc.  In 1851 he moved to the Ohio River, in Oldham
County, and remained there until 1868, when he moved to where he now
resides.  He was chosen by the people of Oldham County, in 1881, to
represent them in the Legislature, and served one term.  In 1849 he married
Miss Mary Adams, a daughter of Dr. William and Margaret Adams, of Jefferson
County.  To this union were born five daughters: Sue M., Bettie O.,
Margaret W., Carrie and Mary.  Margaret W. is deceased.  The mother of
this family died in 1859, and Mr. Taylor was again married in 1860, this
time to Edmonia Barrick, daughter of Charles and Lucy Barrick, of Oldham
County.  Three children blessed their union: Annie C., Philip R., Jr.,
and Charles O.  The family are active members of the Baptist Church.  He
