View all 11 ReflectionsMy great-great-grandfather! I am your brother John Taylor's great-grandchild! I'm trying to find more information on you and your wife. You would have been very proud of John he was a WW2 veteran who received a purple heart. It's very sad to know that you died at 28, that's my age right now. RIP
