He was a partner in his family's successful business firm, became a coroner for York County in 1819 and a member of the New Brunswick Legislature in 1822. Devoutly religious, he was a member of the committee established to build St. Paul's Church in Fredericton. He first married Anne Cameron in 1816 and then Sally Hatfield in 1819, and died in 1834. There is another known portrait of Taylor by Robert Field, but its present location is unknown. This portrait miniature was donated to the National Archives by the great-grand-daughter of the sitter in 1934. / William Taylor (1789-1834) était le fils aîné de James Taylor, un Écossais qui avait servi dans les forces britanniques et fut l'un des premiers colons loyalistes à venir à Fredericton (Nouveau-Brunswick). Il avait le statut d'associé dans l'entreprise commerciale prospère de sa famille; il devint coroner du comté de York en 1819 et député de la Législature du Nouveau-Brunswick en 1822. D'une grande ferveur religieuse, il fut membre du comité de fondation de l’église St. Paul’s à Fredericton. Il épousa d'abord Anne Cameron en 1816, puis Sally Hatfield en 1819, et mourut en 1834. On sait qu'il existe un autre portrait de Taylor par Robert Field, mais on ignore où il se trouve. Ce portrait miniature a été donné aux Archives nationales en 1934 par l'arrière petite-fille de Taylor. |
