My Great-Great-Great Grandparents
unknown couple
George & Martha Taggart
1826 - ? 1828 - ?
I have very little information on George and Martha Taggart.
LDS records show the family in Torpedo, Warren Co. Pennsylvania, though I have found no official record of this. I do have several of George and Marthas children listed as being born in Torpedo PA. Milton, their son, shows PA as the birth state of both George and Martha in the 1880, 1910, & 1920 Us Federal Census.
The Census record below is the only official family document I have found to this date.
