NOTES
On 1920 Census: Jane Taylor is living with Lillian and James W. Eyre (among a LOT of lodgers!) and is listed
as Aunt from Ireland. However, it looks like the spelling of her name is "Jean".
On 1910 Census: Lillian is living with her "parents", with James and first son, William T.
Has place of origin for Lillian's mom (Jane) as "Ire. English" (Ireland).
On 1900 Census: Lillian is listed as Niece to William and Jane Taylor, and her last name is Thompson and born in England.
Supposedly, William and Jane Taylor had 4 kids, 1 living = Lillian ... so did they "adopt" her?
Lillian's Uncle: William H. Taylor
See research notes for possible connection between
Thompson and Taylor.
November 27, 2007: Ordered a certified copy of the marriage certificate of James and Lillian. I'm hoping I have the right one!
It takes 4-6 weeks to process and deliver the copy. December 15: Received certificate. Verified Lillian's parents' names:
William B. Thompson and Margaret Poland.
December 5, 2007: Received copy of Lillian's obit from a
RAOGK volunteer. Verified her age/birth
year and that she is from Liverpool, England.
