Biographical History

A native of Sarasota Springs, New York, Miles Taylor was a congressional representative, lawyer, judge, and sugar planter of Assumption Parish, Louisiana. He married Elizabeth A. Breeden, and they had two sons, Thomas (b. 1842?) and Searing (b. 1845?). He owned Scattery Plantation on Bayou Lafourche.

Thomas served as a sergeant in the 8th Louisiana Volunteers during the Civil War, fighting in Virginia and wounded at Sharpsburg, Maryland. He was also a planter, inventor, and writer. Thomas settled in Fauquier County, Virginia, after the war and married Annie E. Lawrason of Baltimore.
