Allen County Democrat, November 17, 1881
Death of SHELBY TAYLOR

On Saturday last, SHELBY TAYLOR, an old and well known citizen departed this 
life, at his residence on west High street, aged 60 years, 8 months and 17 
days.  He was born in Shelby county, Ohio, on February 23rd, 1821, and died 
November 12th, 1881.  In 1845 he was married to Miss Mary Jane Williams, at 
Richwood, Ohio, and they resided in Logansville, until the spring 1851, when 
they removed to this place.  They have had six children, two of whom have 
preceded their father in death.  He engaged in store keeping when he first 
came here.  Along in the 60’s he disposed of his store and engaged in banking, 
going in with B. C. Faurot, and the late Mr. Hackedorn, organizing a bank 
under the name of “The National Bank,” now the Allen County Bank.  He retired 
from this bank and went to Wapakoneta and established a bank there, of which 
he was cashier.  After passing several years there he returned here and helped 
organize the First National Bank.  After retiring from that position he 
accepted the position of Deputy Auditor under S. D. Chambers, which position 
he filled until taken with his final illness.  The funeral was held on Sunday 
afternoon, from the Trinity M. E. Church, by the Knights Templar, of which 
order he was a bright member.  The grave is in Woodlawn Cemetery.
