Daughter of Henry Wax and Rebecca Holman
Married Thomas W. Taylor circa 1862-63. Ended with his death in 1884.
Known Children*:
Charles Henry Taylor - 17 March 1864
John Milton Taylor - May 1866
Sadie Taylor - circa 1868 (died in infancy)
Minnie Mosella Taylor - 26 March 1871
Anna E. Taylor - 19 March 1876
Edward Stanley Taylor - 3 September 1880**
Anna came from a very large family. Her father was married four time and had 15 children, not all of whom survived childhood, and her mother had three marriages and had 7 or 8 children. Her only full sibling was Rebecca Jane nee Wax Zeigler, children of her father's fourth marriage and her mother's second. Her father was a substantial landowner in Carroll Township, Perry County, where presumably she was born.
Anna's husband, when first married was a forge laborer in 1870 and a farmer in 1880, and lived in Penn Township. Later in life she lived with her son, John Milton Taylor, in Perry County.
* Some Ancestry trees have a daughter, Martha McCallister, born PA about 1858, as possibly born to Anna before her marriage to Thomas Taylor. This is not born out by census materials that show Martha the daughter of John and Jane McCallister, Irish immigrants. Martha appears in the Taylor 1870 and 1880 census household and clearly in the 1880 one as an adopted daughter whose parents were born in Ireland.
** Son Edward Stanley first appears in the 1900 census living with his brother Charles in Duncannon. He was a school teacher.
