I am also researching ancestors of Bartholomew Taylor b.abt. 1774 married Nancy Desmurkes 03 Feb 1819 Baldwin co, GA. descendants Wesley Taylor, Henry Joseph Taylor. These are listed in tallapoosa co. Alabama 1850 census. Look at Nathield Lane Taylor web site 7 his Taylor Family in America. I saw additional information on Bartholomew there (I think) but can not find it again.

It’s great to hear from you Robert! I will gladly share whatever I find with you. You can email me privately at leeny.moore@gmail.com and I’ll have your email so I can send you my finds as I get them. I do have a pretty good copy of Bartholomew’s 1834 sworn statement, where he is asking for a Revolutionary War pension. In the statement he states that he moved to Bracken County, Kentucky from Somerset County, Maryland in 1796.

I have seen quite a few of the Stepney Parish records but it has been awhile since I’ve seen them. I actually live on the Western Peninsula of Maryland, so it’s a weekend trip to go over there and research when I have time. When I do, my first priority is looking for evidence of the move from Virginia to Maryland.

I too am a decendant of Bartholomew Taylor. I am interested in more information of the Taylors in Maryland. I have visited New Haven where John Taylor had land patents signed by Lord Baltimore.John Taylors house is still standing and has been added onto.There are lots of Taylor records in the Stephany Parish records and the place of worship was the Green Church.
My Father was born in Bracken County Kentucky in 1905 and his ancestors were direct decendants of Bartholomew. Most are buried in cemeteries at or near Lenoxburg KY.
I am really interested in the history that determines the Taylors migrating from Virginia to Maryland. I have long suspected that but have not been able to prove that
Please include me on your mailings with anything you may discover about the Taylors in Maryland and Kentucky. If there is anything I might be able to Share with you please just ask.
Thanks so much for sharing your finds.
Bob

I too am researching the Bartholomew Taylor/Nancy Dismukes line. I’ve spent over 10 years trying to trace my Bartholomew from Baldwin & Meriwether County, GA back to his birth place.

My Bartholomew didn’t have a son named Bartholomew that I’m aware of. Bartholomew was a family name though! It’s not out of the realm of possibility that your Bartholomew could be linked to mine, just not directly from this Bartholomew. I think Bartholomew’s great-grandfather had a brother named Bartholomew, I just haven’t done the proper research for that far back. I know my Taylors originated from Virginia and then migrated north to the Maryland Eastern Shore.

Thanks for commenting and keep me updated!

Hello Kathleen,

I’m researching a Bartholomew Taylor too, my 3G grandfather. He was born around 1780-1790, not know where. Before 1819, he moved to Georgia where he married Nancy Dismukes. Children named: Joseph, Thomas, Lucinda, Sarah, Nancy, Wesley. Did your Bartholomew have a son named Bartholomew?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Kerstin
