(From Monday’s Daily.)
Col. Richard Taylor, one of Pettis county’s best known and most respected citizens, died of Bright’s disease and dropsy at his home in Smithton Sunday evening and interment was made in the Smithton cemetery.
CoI. Taylor was a native of Kentucky and throughout his life displayed those characteristic traits conspicious in every native-born resident of the Blue Grass state. On Oct. 15. 1841, Col. Taylor was born at Centerville, Bourbon county. His father was F. B. Taylor.
He was twice married, his first wife was Miss Tucker, of Kentucky, who died several years after her marriage, also one child born of the union. Col. Taylor’s second wife was Miss Fannie P. Smith, who survives him, as do two brothers, H. H. and Frank Taylor, of this city, and one sister, Mrs. Sue Marlin, of Otterville. - Sedalia Weekly Democrat - Thursday, October 22, 1908 pg.6
