Text:   MATTHEW H. TAYLOR, one of the substantial residents of Salem, was born in Derry, N. H., November 29, 1829. He is the KIMBALL FOUR GENERATIONS. Charles Allen. Charles Franklin. Charles Lester. Charles. BIOGRAPHICAL AND GENEALOGICAL. 441 son of Matthew and Louisa (Paul) Taylor, both natives of Derry. He is a direct descendant of Matthew Taylor, who, with his wife, Janet, came from Londonderry, Ireland, and settled in London- derry (now that part of Derry, N. H., known as Derry Dock) in 1722. From Matthew the descent comes through William, Adam, Matthew to Matthew H. His father, Matthew, a mason by trade, married in 1828. In 1846 they moved to Salem, N. H., where he died in August, 1877. His mother, Louisa Paul, daughter of Matthew and Mary (Morrison) Paul, lived in Salem until 1891, when she went to Haverhill, Mass., where she died in November, 1901, at the advanced age of ninety-five years and five months. She was a descendant of the Paul and Morrison families. Matthew H. Taylor has resided in Salem since 1846. As he has always been in active business life under the harsh discipline of experience, his education has been one of progress. When about twenty-five years of age he started in a mercantile business at North Salem. He continued in this for several years ; then, in company with Richard Taylor and Charles Austin, forming the firm of Taylor, Austin & Co., engaged in the manufacture of flannels at North Salem. After a short time Richard Taylor withdrew and the business continued under the name of Austin & Taylor. Affairs were conducted very successfully for seven years, when the mill was totally destroyed by fire. Mr. Taylor bought Mr. Austin's interest and rebuilt the mill, when it was again totally destroyed by fire in October, 1878. For a number of years Mr. Taylor was engaged in the wood and lumber busi- ness. In September, 1884, he started a grocery and provision store with three of his sons, in Lawrence, Mass., under the name of Taylor & Co. Mr. Taylor has filled many positions of public trust and re- sponsibility. He has served four years as selectman, during two of which he was chairman of the board. He represented the town in the State Legislature of 1867-68 and of 1878-79. In 1871 and 1872 he served as state senator from the second district, and was town moderator for fifteen years. He was a member of the school board for eleven years, and for four years chairman of the board. In politics he is a Republican. Since 1854 he has been identified with the Masonic order at Haverhill, Mass. 442 HISTORY OF SALEM. Mr. Taylor married Ellen, daughter of John Taylor, a woolen manufacturer of Salem.
