Married Anna Jane Wax circa 1862-63. Ended with his death in 1884.
Known Children*:

John Milton Taylor - May 1866
Sadie Taylor - circa 1868 (died circa 1870)
Minnie Mosella Taylor - 26 March 1871

Edward Stanley Taylor - 3 September 1880**
Thomas was definitely on his own as a young teenager. He is found age 13 in the household of Thomas White in the 1850 PA, Perry County, Penn Township census. It is presumed he was an orphan. It is highly suggestive he was a late child of James Taylor (d. 1842 # 43495846) and Agnes Gailey (d. 1846 # 43496108) buried in the Gailey-White Cemetery in Cove, Perry County. This is based on two bits of evidence: 1) the 1840 PA, Perry County, Penn Twp. census for James Taylor has a son of the right age, with the family living 4 entries away from Thomas White, 2) Thomas and Anna Wax Taylor buried their daughter, Sadie, in the Gailey-White cemetery where James and Agnes Taylor are buried.
The whereabouts of Thomas in 1860 have not been found. In 1870 he was a forge laborer and by 1880 he was a farmer in Penn Township.
* 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, in the 1860 census. Martha appears in the Taylor's 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 record appearance is the 1900 census, living with his brother Charles in Duncannon; Edward born after the 1880 census. He was a school teacher who had a long career.
References: Handwritten notes from Perry Historians, shared by Mary Lu Keef, Wax descendent, received July 2003, naming Anna's six Taylor children as above. This is consistent with Anna's 1900 and 1910 census returns in which she states she was the mother of six children with five living.
