Edmund Gray Taylor was probably the second of eight children and first son born to William Taylor (1790s-1848) and Sarah McLendon (c.1805-1865). He married Elizabeth Dean (a daughter of Reddick Dean and Polly Moore) in in 1854, and they had five children: Isodias Taylor (c. 1855-before 1860), Julius Whitfield Taylor (1857-1931), John Massey Bo Taylor (1859-1935), Wilson C. Taylor (c. 1861) and Jude Taylor (c. 1863-before 1870).
Edmund Gray Taylor served in the Confederate Army, in Co. K. 43rd NC Regiment. He was wounded in both legs and never recovered from his wounds. He was wounded captured by the yankees at Winchester, Virginia on 19 Deptember 1864, paroled at Point Lookout, Maryland, received in a Baltimore hosptial on 18 Oct. 1864, and exchanged on 30 Oct. 1864. The company muster rolls for Sept. & Oct. list him as "Absent, wounded, in the hands of the enemy." The rolls for Nov. & December state "On wounds furlough." I assume he died in Dec. 1864, or perhaps a bit later.
He is buried in an unmarked grave near those of his parents and grandparents at the old Taylor home place on Brown Creek, Anson Co., NC. The dates of his birth and death are not definitely known.
