The Ritual of the GAR was performed at the cemetery.
He was born in Bledsoe County, and was 76 years old. He enlisted in the Co. E., 6th Tenn., Mounted Infantry, Sept. 2, 1864 and at close of war was discharged, June 20th, 1865.
Since coming to this county [after the war] he lived in Pryor Cove pursuing his occupation as farmer and was held in high esteem by his neighbor's and friends.
He leaves a wife and several children.
He joined post 53 GAR, Sept. 24th, 1892.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Levi Bolen of this place.
BIRTHPLACE NOTE: Born 1 year Prior to the formation of Hamilton County- that's why different locations are cited for his birthplace but it is the same location no matter what it is called.
The Tennessee General Assembly created Hamilton County on October 25, 1819. Rhea, Marion, and Bledsoe Counties bounded the new county, and it extended south to the state line. The creation of the new county on the southwestern frontier was brought about by a treaty with the Cherokees in 1817. By the terms of the Hiwassee Purchase, the Indians yielded large sections of Alabama and Georgia, as well as the Sequatchie Valley and the area that became Hamilton County. Initially, Hamilton County did not extend south of the Tennessee River. This area, including the site of Cherokee Chief John Ross's landing in present-day Chattanooga, did not become a part of the county until the disputed Treaty of 1835 that led to Indian removal and the "Trail of Tears." The county was named in honor of Alexander Hamilton, secretary of the treasury in George Washington's administration. Hamilton was the name of the district of which this section had formerly been a part.
Taylor's family claimed to be descendants of Cherokee.
They said that the surname "Shadrick" actually came from the Bible, Shadrach (Daniel, chapter 3, verses 16-28), and was take as the "Christian" name of their Cherokee ancestor who was baptized by the Moravian missionaries.
Later, this became the family surname.
