Hi

Have you looked for his death on Scotlands People?    www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

What year was he at Clincart Road?  What year was their last child born?

When did his wife die?  Is he mentioned on her death cert as living or deceased?

His father was a seaman - was Archibald also a seaman?

Have not looked for his death as yet, do not know when he died. On the 1911 census they were living at Clincart Road, and it has Archibald at the age of 33 years. And his wife at 30 years of age so that would make her birth year about 1880/1.
And they have a 1 year old son also called Archibald so that would make his birth year about 1909/1910
I do not think Archibald would be a sailor, I might be wrong but his older brother John Campbell Taylor did not follow in fathers foot steps, after the terrible death of their parents and youngest brother ( they drowned at sea ) that must of put him off.

The answers to my other questions would help to narrow any search although I can't think there would be a lot of Archibald Taylors b 1877/78

Scotlands People has 6 matches to the following deaths input:

Archib**  Tayl*r - choose "wildcards allowed" from the menu at the sides of the name fields

Birthyear 1878 plus or minus 1yr

Because you don't know whether he moved from Glasgow - it's best not to use a county for the search.
