This Cemetery is on Private Property and Permission must be obtained in order to visit the cemetery.  The following is from Mary Rhodes:   "Emma, George and Priscilla Andrews Taylor were all born in England.  I cannot find them in the 1850 or 1860 census to confirm where William was born.  Emma and George did collect a pension after Williams Death."  Additional information will be added to this page as obtained.  If anyone has additional information to be shared please Email: Webmaster@alleganyhistory.org .

"I could not read the writing on the monument, but I believe William enlisted Aug 8, 1862 in Belmont and served in Co H. NY 1st Cavalry Regiment.  He was killed at Todd's Tavern VA on May 7, 1864."  (Mary Rhodes)
