"[John A. Taylor] received such an education as the schools of his early youth afforded, but by reading, observation, and close application to business principles, he has added largely to his general fund of information. At the age of twenty years, he commenced flat-boating out of Rough Creek, Green River, Ohio, and Mississippi to New Orleans, and continued in that business fourteen years; made ten trips to New Orleans, buying up produce and selling it in that city. At the close of the war, he became a cattle drover in the northern part of the State, and is well known throughout that section. . . . Mr. Taylor owns a fine farm of more than a hundred acres of choice land, and his home is one of the neatest in the county; he was a member of the old, Whig party and voted for Bell and Everett, and is now a Democrat; at the close of the war he was elected Sheriff of Ohio County, and filled that office creditably for two years. He is a man of sterling worth and integrity."
