Excerpt from The Homes of George Taylor, Signer of the Declaration of Independence: A Paper Read Before the George Taylor Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, at Easton, Pennsylvania, December 6, 1922
It is unfortunate that historians have fallen into errors in their accounts of this. Interesting man. Corrections do not always cor rect, or reach the same readers. This is true not only of the life and services of George Taylor, but of many items of other his tory as well.
