  Title Taylor, Robert. Publication 1662 Gen. note Part of index to wills not listed in Virginia Wills and Administrations, 1632-1800 (Torrence). Note Will - 1662 Note Lancaster Co. Loose Papers === 1661-1666 Lancaster County, Virginia Deed & Wills [Antient Press]; Page 210 Lancaster County Court 28th of January 1662/63 - Probate of the Last Will & Testamt. of ROBERT TAYLOR, deced., is granted unto MARGARET. his late Wife, she beinge appointed Executrix by the sd. Last Will &Testamt. === 1653-1800 Lancaster County, Virginia Wills [Ida J. Lee]; TAYLOR, Robert. Oct. 23, 1662. Rec. 28 Jan. 1662. Prob. 20 Jan. 1662. Daniel Welch my son-in-law. Wife: Margarett, Extrx. Unborn child. Friend: Richard Parrott overseer. Wits: Rich. Parrott, James Blackmore. Servant: Jason Taylor. W.B. Loose wills. === Research Notes by Pamela Pearson I have a copy of his will, which doesn't differ in substance from the abstract by Ida Lee. Robert Taylor gave his "son-in-law" Daniell Welsh the remaining time his servant, J--- Taylor, had to serve; if Daniel died before the time was served, then the remaining time to his wife and "child she goeth with." His "well loved friend" Richard Parrott was asked to look after the same (wife and child) after his decease. Other than the servant, his wife Margaret was given the remainder of his estate - and she was to be his sole executrix. My thoughts: There is no mention in his will of other children. Perhaps the children you have listed go with a different Robert Taylor. I have also found no mention in the court records re: the guardianship or estate of Robert Taylor's child. His unborn child likely did not survive === 1653-1800 Lancaster County, Virginia Wills [Ida J. Lee]; BURNHAM, Rowland. Will. 12 Feby. 1655. Rec. 1 March 1656.
