I am researching my great grandparents, Marion Octavus Taylor and his wife Ila Virginia Carter Taylor. Marion was born August 3, 1883. His parents are Augustus Washington Taylor and Martha Cornelia (Jane)Russell. He died September 10, 1953. Ila was born October 24, 1888 to Rueben Carter and Frankie Calloway. Ila died October 1969. I am deadlocked from there. I want to search back to the civil war if possible.

Thank You, C. Taylor
