Happy Fourth of July to All of the Taylor and Baker Cousins!


A little early-- Enjoy!


As many of you know, we are very proud of our Taylor Flag which has been in our family for a few hundred years. The Taylors’ diaries are filled with 4th of July celebrations which often took place at a lake with a picnic and fireworks, but we know of a few reunions also, with our flag proudly hung in the background:

Taylor Reunion--New and Old Flag

Last year, Jon Maney helped us find a flag expert who reproduced flags for all who wanted them.
To celebrate this year’s 4th of July, I asked all of the cousins who had flags to take a picture of theirs and send it to me.



Kathy and Gordie Mills Write:
Our flag hangs in our family room from the ceiling. Everyone sees it as you walk into the room.

Pat and Glenn’s flag is at their place in Maine:


Jim and Jill, Maddy and Kelly have their flag hanging from their tree fort:
