Biography

Ford, in her history of the Taylor and Branch families, considers Joseph a son of William and Ann (Winston) Brooks. [1]

Yet he seems to have been born in 1822, when William would have been fifty and Ann forty-seven. This needs more evidence.

Joseph married Francis Taylor on 31 August 1842 in Williamson, Tennessee, United States.[2]

Frances was a sister of Sally, who married Christopher M. Brooks.

In the 1850 census Joseph (age 28) was in Rutherford, Tennessee, United States with wife Frances (age 20).[3]

In the 1860 census J (age 38) was at 10th Civil District, Rutherford, Tennessee, United States with wife T. Brooks (age 37) and daughter, A. E. Taylor Brooks (age 6).[4]

In the 1880 census Joseph (age 58), farmer, was the married head of household in District 8, Grainger, Tennessee, United States, with Frances (age 56) and seven servants.[5]
