Arthur Lloyd Taylor 1859 – 1925

Professional genealogist and podcaster Amy Johnson Crow has put out the challenge to genealogists and family historians, to write stories about 52 of their ancestors in 52 weeks. I am happily taking up the challenge, and look forward to writing stories, that will collate many years of research results. In most cases, the research for my ancestors is not complete, and possibly never will be complete, but I’m hoping to build a story of the lives they lived with the information I have to hand.

I’m hoping to publish these stories in a book at the end of 2020.

Arthur Lloyd TAYLOR is the youngest child of my great great grandparents John TAYLOR and Martha Lloyd, born on 20 February 1859 at Whittlesea, Victoria.
