TAYLOR

At the moment, the earliest relation I can trace is Thomas George Taylor, born in Alverstoke in1830 who is my Great Great Grandfather on my maternal side. He married Rebbeca Taylor who also came from Alverstoke in 1831. According to the 1881 census, they had 3 children and a grand daughter living with them at 13 Clarence Yard;
Tomas Taylor aged 51, born 1830 in Alverstoke
Rebbeca Taylor aged 50, born in Alverstoke
Thomas G. Taylor aged 23, born 1858 in Alverstoke
Georgina E Taylor aged 14, born 1867 in Sheerness, Kent
Alfred J Taylor aged 13, born 1868 in Sheerness, Kent

Currently I have no pictures of him or who his wife was, or how many children they had, but  Alfred John Taylor is my maternal Great Grandfather.
