John Rodgers Meigs Taylor Colonel, United States Army |
![]() |
| Born in 1865 he was the
son of Joseph Hancock and Mary
Meigs Taylor. His middle names may are "John Rodgers" and he may be
named after his mother's brother, John Rodgers Meigs,
who
was killed in action in the Civil War.
These would then be connections between some of the most famous names in American military history (Taylors, Meigs and Rodgers'). His brother, Montgomery Meigs Taylor, Rear Admiral, United States Navy, is also buried in Arlington National Cemetery. He died in 1949 and was buried among other family members in Section
1 of Arlington National Cemetery.
