Individual Details

Nancy is said to have married Henry Taylor in the spring of 1818. He was said to have been 21 years of age or born 1797.

There is a note from an old letter/family story that states, buried along with James & Philadelphia Harmon is Henry Taylor, a shoemaker from Cincinnati and a nephew, who died in their home while on a visit in December of 1818. It appears that Henry Taylor was likely a cousin of James Harmon, not a nephew. He was a nephew by marriage of Elizabeth Byrd Harmon. Supposedly Henry Taylor was asked to make wedding boots for his cousin, Will Harmon, a young man. James Harmon did have a brother William that married in 1814 - I don't find another Will. But there was another Harmon brother - John Bird - that did marry in December of 1818.

Nancy delivered a son, Apr 21, 1819, in Ohio, and named him Henry Taylor Nancy Smith Taylor married again to Edward Coleman by whom she had another son and named him Edward. She died about 1823 and young Henry Taylor was placed in the care of his uncle Hiram Smith. The baby was taken by Coleman relatives. When Henry was about ten years old, another uncle, Will Smith, took the boy to live with him in Boone Co IN.

Nancy appears to be the daughter of a Stephen Hale that lived in Pulaski Co KY 1830, then moved to Macon Co MO in time for the 1840 census. Here's what I've found:
Young Henry is said to have married Nancy Jane Carr, 3 Apr 1840, Boone Co IN. Apparently this marriage did not work out and he went to Missouri where he then married Nancy Hale, 21 Jul 1844 - in Platte Co. The family story is that Nancy Hale was the youngest of ten children of Stephen & Nancy Hale, born 2 Mar 1827. They are said to have moved to from Kentucky to Missouri when young Nancy was 12, or about 1839/1840. It is said her mother died when she was 15, or about 1843 and she had to care for her father and three grown brothers. Nancy's father Stephen Hale is buried next to her mother in Macon Co MO. In 1848, Nancy & Henry Taylor returned to Boone Co IN where they appear in the 1850 census next door to William Smith.

I did find the following:
The elder Stephen Hail in Pulaski Co KY, 1830, had a household of six boys and two girls, the youngest of the girls under age 5 as Nancy would have been. He was age 50-60 and on the same page as a Stephen age 20-30 with a wife only 15-20 [not thought to be the Stephen M. Hale that married Millard Smith], a Benj Hail Sr. age 40-50, and a James Hail age 50-60.
In 1840, Macon Co MO, I found Stephen Hail. He had 1m 10-15, 1m 15-20, 1m 20-30, and himself, age 60-70. There was a daughter age 10-15 [Nancy age 12] and his wife was age 50-60. This is undoubtedly the family of Nancy Hale.
The question remains what the relationship was to the Stephen M. Hale that married Millard Smith - there would certainly seem to be one given that Henry Taylor went from Indiana to Platte Co MO where some of the Hales seemed to be living.
