Hi Jen
Great to finally hear from someone with an interest in the Taylor line! I'm a little unsure as to whether the John Taylor with children John and Charles in the 1841 census are actually my family. I have a copy of Charles Taylor obituary from the local newspaper and it claims that when he died in Wales around Sept 1924 he was 6 months away from his 100th birthday, which would make his birth year as 1825 not 1833 as in the 1841 census. I know they weren't accurate in giving birth years at that time. From the familysearch.org site I have a marriage for John Taylor and Charlotte Davies both of Marden but they married in 1827. I just wish I could get some definite information which would confirm what I've got. Please let me know if you have any further info which would help me.
Thanks.
