The family moved a lot.  It appears their first home was in Pittsburgh.  They are on the 1850 Census living in Birmingham                                                             borough of Allegheny County.  page 62.   This is on the  south side of the  Monongahela  River in what is now greater                                                                 Pittsburgh.  Joseph Taylor is 39 and a shoemaker, Louisa is 42 and Robert 15.  all born in England. 

                                        The Biographical and Genealogical History of the State of Delaware, Vol 1 written in 1899 on page 470  has a full page                                                             dedicated to Robert S. Taylor.  The story includes his parents and uncle.  It fills in some of the gaps not found in census or                                                             deed documents.  As Robert did not die until 1928, it is very likely he supplied the details himself.  According to the Bio the                                                      family moved to Louisville Ky in 1850 - would have been after the census was taken in PA.In Louisville he was trained as a                                                         glass and bottle blower.

                                         In 1853 they returned to PA, Bridgewater.  There are actually 3 Bridgewaters in PA, but I believe it most likely they were                                                             moving via the Ohio River, ie Pittsburgh to Louisville, then back up the river to the Bridgewater that is on the Ohio just west                                                         of Pittsburgh. There Robert secured work in a glass works as a skilled worker.  Finally, the family moved to Delaware where                                                         Robert's uncle, James Taylor owned and operated a woolen mill on Pike Creek in Mill Creek Hundred.

                                        It is not known just when the family arrived in Delaware but on Dec 31, 1857 Anna Kelley was wed to Robert Taylor  by                                                         James S. Vallandingham. a Presbyterian minister of the area  re Delaware Marriage Records 1806-1933, page 122.

                                        Very shortly, in 1858 Robert Taylor at the age of 24 purchased a farm of 60 acres in Mill Creek Hd. and lived and managed                                                         the farm for over 40 years.

Next door to Robert'' parents Joseph and Lucy Taylor.

Robert was a very active citizen.  Not only did he successfully run a farm with  profitable stock and grain, but he was constantly employed as an engineer by a variety of businesses including his uncle's woolen mill, iron mills of Bringhurst, P & O Railroad, and various Kaolin businesses in Hockessin.

The bio completes the story by noting Robert Taylor was a Republican, elected school commissioner in District #90, where he lived on Pike Creek, and that he and his children were members of the M.E. Church. I would guess that to be Ebenzer.  I need to look for church records.  However, his wife Anne continued at White Clay Presbyterian church where she was raised and her family attended.

On Janurary 6, 1908 appeared an article in the Evening Journal of Wilmington De, image 5 (maybe page 5) telling of the 50th anniversary celebration held for Robert and Anna Taylor at their home near Marshallton on New Years Day. "of seven children, the six living were all there" Lucy was not listed but her husband and daughter were there.  11 grandchildren were also in attendance.

Robert, 75 and Anna, 73 now live without children at home, but next door is
George with his wife Mary E.
Robert states he is "Out of work" and was for 32 weeks.

The couple again appeared in the Evening Journal, May 24, 1911 in a social column telling of an "autoing party"  when all members of Catherine Ann Boulden's family visited her parents "last Sunday in Pike Creek".  That is Mr. & Mrs. John C. Boulden, Dr. & Mrs Harry R. Pennock, and Miss Grace Boulden of Wilmington.

Anna Kelley Taylor died Dec. 30, 1919 near Harmony, in White Clay Hundred. I have trouble reading the cause of death.  It may be Bronchites.  She was buried at White Clay Creek Presbyterian Cemetery on Jan 2, 1920 though the death certificate says Ebenezer. She is in plot 124.  re Find A Grave. Memorial 154868227 with photos of the grave in cemetery.

In the 1920 Delaware Census, Robert Taylor is a widower and lived with his son George.  Robert Taylor lived another 8 years. He died Jan 22, 1928 at 93 years old.   He is buried next to her. Photo and details are on Find a Grave, Memorial ID # 137830248
