Taylor Family (2/4)

The materials in the Genealogy Series are perhaps the most historically relevant items in the Caperton/Burnam Family Papers when considering Madison County and Kentucky research opportunities. The series is also a testament to Mrs. Caperton's lifelong pursuit of genealogical knowledge, and, presumably, most of these materials were used when she wrote An Accumulation of Family Evidence, Vols. I - III. Boxes 23 thru 25 are arranged alphabetically, however, in an attempt to save shelf space the legal and letter sized materials were separated and arranged accordingly. As a result, the alphabetical order of these three boxes is not consistent and should be duly noted while investigating the records. The first alphabetical name in an order was used when multiple family names are included in a particular document set. The correspondence and handwritten notes from Mrs. Caperton's research inquiries and findings are found at the front of Box 23, with the remainder of the box and Boxes 24 and 25 making up the rest of the genealogical items.
