Mr. Taylor was born in Ohio, and leaves a wife and two sons.
Short services were held at Rice's parlors and the remains sent to Wayne City, Ill.
Note: William Clinton Taylor, son of George William and Catherine (Spicer) Taylor was born about 1853 in Ohio. His mother's obituary in 1910 mentions only 2 living sons and not William. The family was living in Wayne County by 1860. In 1870 he was living there with his mother. He appears to have married three times. He married Sarah Scott before 1880 when they lived in Wayne County with two of their three children, George and Mary Alice. In July 1882 he married Martha Ellen Marshall. They had four children. Presumably both Sarah and Martha died but no evidence has been found yet. On August 2, 1894 he married Etta F. Cheeley Keltcher (listed as Kelleher on the Illinois Marriage Index, but Cheeley in WC record) and in the 1900 Wayne County census there are 6 Taylor children and 3 Keltcher step-children in the household and one granddaughter. The two youngest Taylor children are William and Etta's. According to her obituary, Etta remarried in 1909 after the death of her husband, William Taylor.
