ELORY TAYLOR,
Perkins, Erie county, died Mar. 17, 1898. He came to this
county in 1811, with his parents when a boy of seven years.
Mr. Taylor was 90 years of age, and was among the first
settlers of Perkins township, having settled there in 1815. In 1810
Rev. John Beatty came from Connecticut, and purchased of the
Firelands company nearly all the land in Perkins township. He then
went back to Connecticut, and sold a tract of this land to the
father of Elory Taylor, Jesse Taylor. Jesse
Taylor and family, then started from Connecticut in wagons,
traveling through the then unbroken forest. Elory
Taylor was then but 7 years. The family finally arrived at
what is now Perkins township, erected cabins and commenced to
cultivate the land. This tract of land is better known as the
“Yankee Settlement.” In 1816 a log school house was built and
an instructor employed. Among the scholars was Elory
Taylor. This is where he received his first education
[Page 356] -
Elory Taylor was one of
thirteen children, two of whom are still living. He was
married twice. Both of his wives preceded him to the grave. Mr.
Taylor was known for miles around as being, in one sense of
the word, the first settler in Perkin's township.

marriage at Vermillion, June 9, 1850, to Jeremiah Thorp,
