I just joined the list, so I missed the original message on this. I gather
you are looking for a Beriah Taylor from the Parrsboro area? I descend
from Eleazer Taylor, a loyalist who settled in Parrsboro in 1784. He had
a wife Susan/Susanna, several children born before his arrival in
Parrsboro, and several children born after his arrival. I descend from his
daughter Esther, who married 1) Bartlet Martin, and 2) George Lockhart (my
descent is through the Lockhart marriage)

If you let me know what you have on Beriah, especialy her approximate date
of birth, if known, I might be able to help.
