Daniel S. Taylor, Englwood's centarian, died Friday morning, at his home, 2954 S. Acoma, after a few week's illness. He would have been 101 years old had he lived till May 14. He had been active until about six months ago, when his health gradually failed. Until that time he had been able to work in his garden and yard and was mentally alert. He took frequent walks and enjoyed visiting with his friends and relatives.
Daniel Taylor was born in Booneville, Arkansas, May 14, 1837. He later moved to Missouri, but spent most of his adult life in Nebraska and Iowa. Some time after the death of his first wife, by whom he has three daughters living, he was married to Rosie Todd in Rockport, Missouri, sixty-five years ago. Two sons were born to them. John D. Taylor and James W. Taylor, both of whom live in Englewood.
The Taylor's came to Englewood in 1922, although they bought property here in 1920, soon after their son John and his family moved to Englewood. In 1882, while working in a foundry which he owned and operated in Hamburg Iowa, Mr. Taylor caught his right hand in machinery and the arm had to be amputated below the elbow. He kept the polished bones and at his request they were buried with him.
He was a veteran of the Indian wars and fought in Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska. He was a skilled craftsman in both iron and wood, and was also a pattern maker and designer of machinery. He had many friends and especially liked children, who instinctively trusted and liked him. He well deserved the love and esteem felt for him by his friends and relatives.
He is survived by five children: Mrs. Annie C. Parkhurst of Billings, Montana; Mrs. Betty Stiles of Brunswick, Nebraska; Mrs. Ella Lee O'Connor of Los Angeles, and the two sons in Englewood. Mrs. Stiles spent five weeks with with her father this spring, and left only two weeks ago.
