Note: Hannah L. Taylor Birth: �Ctab�DDec. 19, 1806 Death: �Ctab�DFeb. 9, 1895 Burial: Oak Hill Cemetery Crawfordsville Montgomery County Indiana, USA Edit Virtual Cemetery info [?] Created by: R & S Fine Record added: Dec 21, 2008 Find A Grave Memorial# 32315105 Crawfordsville Daily Journal, Feb 11, 1895 -- The funeral services of Mrs. Hannah L. Taylor were held this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the residence of Mrs. Joseph Milligan, conducted by Rev. RJ Cunningham, DD and Rev. JF Tuttle, DD. The interment was made at Oak Hill cem. Mrs. Hannah Logan Taylor was b. in Shelby Co, Ky in 1806; she died at Crawfordsville, Indiana Feb 9, 1895 from old age. Her father, James Allen was a Virginian who emigrated first to Ky, and afterwards in 1830 came as a pioneer to this state and settle din the forest where Waveland is now situated. He gave the name to Waveland and kept the first postoffice there. The Allens were of that vigorous stock which poured over the Allegheny mountains a century ago and took such an active part in the winning of the West. No people built new States better than the Scotch-Irish who to their courage, thrift and enterprise added a love for education and a devotion to the Protestant religion. Mrs. Taylor was childless but her father's family was large and their descendants, scattered far and wide are substantial citizens of every community where they live. One branch of the family embraces the Rices of Rockville, Attica, Lafayette and Waveland. Mrs. Taylor was twice marr. and in each case to a Presbyterian minister, both of whom she long survived, and for 30 years she has been a member of the family of the late Joseph Milligan. She was the aunt of Mrs. Milligan. Mrs. Taylor belonged to a Presbyterian family. Four of her brothers were grad. of Princeton Theological Seminary and ministers of the Presbyterian church. One of her brothers grad. in the first class of Wabash College and another in the second. Her long life stretches back into the pioneer days of Indiana. Those days are interesting in the retrospect and many singular and thrilling incidents occurred in that early time. The father of Mrs. T. was journeying on horseback from Ky. to the new state of Indian. Night was nearly upon him and he was in a dense wood; he looked in vain for shelter; no habitation was to be seen, not even a clearing nor a deadening. But he saw a smoke in the forest and directing his way to it he found a family living temporarily in a wagon. The man sat on his horse and inquired for shelter. The wife and mother sharply eyed the stranger for a moment and then seized him at the same time crying: "My brother James" The astonished brother could not account for the warmth of his reception. But his captor recovering her composure finally told him she was his sister, that she marr. and left her father's house in Va. many years ago when he was a child and had not seen him since; that she, with her husband and children, was emigrating to Montgomery County, Indiana and that one of the oxen had died and they were not able to proceed and were temporarily living in the woods as he had found them. They afterwards came on and settled near Waveland. The old settlers are rapidly passing away, the survivors are few; they lived in the heroic age of the state, they felled the forests, cleared the ground, established government, endured hardships and deprivations that life might be easier for those coming after them. The further we recede from their day, the more they shall be honored. Mrs. T. was one of these pioneers. Her gentle and cheerful life soothed and brightened the lives of those about her. She was pious and religious, but never gloomy nor superstitious. She knew the Bible thoroughly, and her memory was filled with many of its best passages; so that when flesh and heart failed her and the world was almost left behind, choice verses from the bible fell from her dying lips without effort. Her mind was so filled with these treasurers that they came forth spontaneously. Hannah L. Taylor was a bright and good spirit and in her life and character exhibited the highest type of Christian womanhood. Mr. Milligan was married April 5, 1846, to Miss Janie M. Hawkins, the daughter of Col. Hawkins, of Braddock, Pennsylvania, but her death occurred January 25, 1852, when she left one daughter, India J., who died at the age of twenty-four years. Mr. Milligan was married a second time in September 1853, to Miss Harriet N. Fullinwider, the daughter of Eleazer and Lavina (Allen) Fullinwider, who had settled near Waveland about 1834. The father was a Kentuckian, although his parents had come form Pennsylvania, and the mother's from Virginia, and both parents died in this county in 1870 and 1879, respectively. Mrs. Milligan has one sister, Mrs. Hannah Taylor, the widow of Rev. Samuel Taylor, a Presbyterian minister of Frankfort and Waveland. Mrs. Milligan was born March 13, 1825, in Shelby County, Kentucky, and the children of the family are Harry J., who is now an attorney at Indianapolis, and a graduate of Wabash College; and Anna Allen, a talented young lady, who is her father's most valued assistant. http://countyhistory.org/books/doc.montg/006.htm Elizabeth Logan, b.
