“Readers are likely to find many erroneous references on the internet that the Ann/Anne Taylor (Anne Cary) who married Miles Cary was the daughter of the Thomas Taylor who married Margaret Swinderby, but as that Thomas is documented as having died in England in 1618 it is impossible that he was the father of Anne who married Miles Cary.”

Disputed Origins

https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/VWD4Sj_G0mw?pli=1

Gens. 4-5. Here is another one, and this is the crux of the problem of Brewer's book for all the various Taylor lines. She makes the
identifiable originators of *several* known Virginia Taylor families
sons of John Taylor, whose estate was inventoried in Lancaster Co. in
1654 (earliest Taylor probate in the Northern Neck). Yet the only
concrete kinship data Brewer can show is the daughter Elizabeth, who m.
Simon Sallard, the son Richard Taylor (a minor in 1667, but who d.s.p.
1668 with sister Elizabeth Sallard as his heir); and another son John,
who passed his sister Elizbeth Sallard land in March of 1667 (and was
possibly dead by 1668, to have no part in disposition of brother
Richard's estate). Of the others, many are simply early settlers of
other parts of Virginia with no known connction. No known connection.
NO KNOWN CONNECTION.

Finally, gens. 4 and above:

A. Gen. 4: England to America. As with almost all alleged Enlglish
origins, this is a guess. There is no known data on John Taylor of
Lancaster Co., VA, to identify him with any specific John Taylor of
English origin. Look in the IGI, and you will see dozens of authentic
parish register extracts of births of an English John Taylor of the
right age to be the immigrant. Enough said.

B. the English genealogy of alleged descendants of Rowland Taylor:
There seems to have been widespread circulation of this genealogy,
especially in connecion with James Taylor of Caroline County, Virginia,
in the later 20th century, to judge from the number of independent
entries in the IGI corresponding to the English baptisms given in Brewer
(many taken from patron submissions from the 60s & 70s, suggesting a
widespread early source for this which I have not located).

One telltale problem visible in the IGI is that for *none* of the
baptisms given in Brewer's account of the English Taylors (son,
grandsons of Rowland) is there any authentic parish register material
cited in the IGI. The many duplications are all patron submissions,
listing places of birth as Carlisle (conflating the groundless but
oft-repeated tradition of the origin of James Taylor of Caroline
County), or Hadleigh, Suffolk (the place of Dr. Rowland Taylor's living)
or Cambridge, also mentioned here in Brewer. Simply put, because I can
find no authoritative primary source for it, there is no reason to trust
any of this data.
