Mother: UNNAMED |
married J. Ann __?__ born ca. 1823 AL (1870 census) or ca.
1830 GA (1860 census).
1870 census ages match other records much better.
1850 Jackson Co. census as William Lee. His family found only in
1860 Jackson and 1870 Madison Co., AL censuses. In 1870, he is
widowed and he and his children are living with the Miles Lee
family. He is not found thereafter.
Civil War: Enlisted with the famous "Paint Rock River
Sharpshooters" as a private in Co. G (Woodville Sharpshooters),
12th Alabama Regiment of Infantry, June 20, 1861 at Woodville,
Jackson Co., Alabama for one year. He was in Capt. Bibb's
Company of Sharpshooters, Alabama Volunteers. He was in Richmond
by July 8, 1861. Near Manassas during the fall and winter, his
unit moved to Yorktown in spring 1862. The unit fought at
Williamsburg, then led the advance that opened the battle at
Seven Pines. The unit skirmished before Richmond then was in the
advance into Maryland in the fall of 1862. The unit fought at
Boonesboro and also at Sharpsburg (Antietam) before retiring
into Virginia to winter 1862-1863 on the Rappahannock.
Giles was hospitalized twice in Richmond during the fall of
1862. Once for 15 days for scabies and once for 5 days for
diarrhea. He was discharged February 10, 1863 because of his
age. His discharge gave his age as 45, height 5 feet 6 inches,
dark complexion, blue eyes, and dark hair. His birthplace was
given as Madison Co., Alabama which conflicts with census
records which say Tennessee. He was given back pay (at a rate of
$11.00 per month) of $14.30 and an extra travel allowance of
$1.00 for rations on his trip home from Virginia to Alabama.

WILL OF JOHN TAYLOR: I, John Taylor, being sick but of sound
mind do declare this to be my last will and testament this 7th
day of January 1824.
1st. I give to my wife, Lucy Taylor, my estate called Hazelwood
including all my lands adjoining to it, bought of sundry
persons, and an island in the river, during her widowhood. I
also give her Phillis the wife of Norman, and all the
descendants of the said Phillis, Angella another house servant
and all her descendants, Judy a cook and all her descendants,
Charles, Harry, Tom, Matthew, and Eliza husbands and wife of
some of these descendants including any born after the date of
this will, absolutely. I also give her all the money in the
house at the time of my death, the household furniture and
liquors, all the stocks, tools, carriages and crops growing or
severed on the estate at the time of my death, absolutely, and
all the slaves which may be living on it at that time, above
those given to her forever, I give to her for and during her
widowhood. But I direct that out of the money in the house
should a suit or suits in the Court of Appeals against my son
John on account of some transactions of his brother in law
William Woodford finally go against him, she shall discharge
whatever may be recovered.
2nd. I give to my son William my tract of land called Hayfield
with all the negroes, stocks, utensils and crops growing or
severed thereon at the time of my death, to him and his heirs
forever.
3rd. I give to my son Henry all the lands in Westmoreland I
bought of Robertson with all the slaves, stocks and utensils
thereto belonging and all the crops thereon either growing or
severed at the time of my death to him and his heirs.
4th. I give to my son George my two plantations on Pamunky River
opposite to each other, with all the slaves, stocks and utensils
to them belonging, and all the crops, severed or growing thereon
at the time of my death, and also a tract of land on Mattapony
usually called Hoomes's, bought of several persons, all to him
and his heirs forever.
5th. I give to my Grandson John Taylor the estate called
Hazelwood after his grandmother's interest therein shall cease,
together with one moiety of the slaves given to her during her
widowhood, provided he both attains the age of twenty one years
and marries. If both these events should be accomplished these
lands and slaves are to go to him and his heirs forever, if
either should fail, they are on his death to be equally divided
among my heirs. But I make this devise upon condition that my
said grandson shall relinquish to any children or child which
his father may have besides the three he now has, anything which
may fall to him under a settlement relating to the land and
negroes of which his father is possessed.
6th. I give to my four sons the other moiety of the slaves given
to my wife during her widowhood.
7th. I give to my grand-daughter Lucy P. Taylor ten thousand
dollars to be raised out of the debts due to me, a tract of land
adjoining Palestine, and a negro girl named Milly, directing my
executors to sell the land if they can giving a preference to
the Mr. Burks, and to allot the debts of these gentlemen towards
the payment of this legacy, whom I wish them to indulge as long
as they pay the interest punctually. This legacy is not to
become, payable unless the said Lucy shall attain to twenty one
years of age or marry, and in the mean time I direct my
executors to accumulate it by receiving the interest and putting
it at interest, for I direct that bonds carrying interest shall
be appropriated to the object upon my death. If the said Lucy
shall neither attain the age of twenty one nor marry, then
everything given to her is to revert to my estate.
8th. I give to my grandson Edmund Taylor all the lands I bought
of Spotswood with the slaves, stocks, crops growing or severed
and tools, except Humphrey and his family intended to be sold,
and Tom given to his grandmother, upon condition that he both
arrives to twenty one years of age and marries, upon the
accomplishment of both which events he is to have a fee simple,
upon the failure of either and his death, the property hereby
devised is to revert to my estate and go to my heirs.
9th. I give my books to my four sons reserving to their mother a
power to select and retain such as she may choose, for her life.
10th. If the surplus of my debts, after paying my
granddaughter's legacy, should not suffice to pay all demands
against me, each of my sons William, Henry and George are to pay
one fourth of the deficiency, and the Hazelwood estate the other
fourth.
11th. I direct conveyance to be made by my heirs for any lands
in Kentucky I have given to my relations there by letter. The
gifts were only of my title, and no warranty is to be made
against the claims of others.
12th. I give all the rest of my estate, real and personal to be
equally divided among my four sons. In this residue is included
a large tract of land in Kentucky inherited from my son Edmund
500 acres patented, a 1000 acre entry in the care of a Mr.
Waring and some town lots in the care of Genl. Taylor.
13th. I direct that all the lands and slaves devised by this
will shall be bound to guarantee the title of each devisee, and
that if any eviction or recovery shall take place the same shall
contribute in proportion to value to make good the loss.
14th. I direct that the possessor of Hazelwood for the time
being shall provide for William Norment during his life as he
has hitherto been provided for.
Finally, I appoint my wife Lucy Taylor and my son William P.
Taylor executrix and executor of this my will, and direct that
neither an inventory, appraisement nor sale be made of any part
of my estate, and that neither of them be required to give
security. And I subscribe this paper wholly written with my own
hand as and for my last will and testament this 7th day of
January, 1824.
For removing any doubt which might arise from two clauses of
this my will, it is my intention that my two grandsons John and
Edmund shall have the possession and use of the property devised
to them respectively, the former from the termination of his
grandmother's estate, and the latter from my death, each for his
life, though the events may never happen, which may make their
titles absolute.
John Taylor.
Virginia: At a court holden for Caroline County, at the Court

"Fearing the growing prominence of the Federal government, he
was one of the early advocates of states' rights, and of a
Southern Confederacy. He believed that the Hamiltonian
capitalism was a threat to agriculture, particularly because it
was producing a 'paper aristocracy' whose power was derived from
the manipulation of credit."
