I am looking for the father of Charles Taylor b. 1807 Virginia. I have traced him back to 1850 eastern district Tazewell county census and wish to go further. I was wondering if anyone has info on Charles Taylor and his father. Also his son Robert Taylor b. 1837 in Virginia served in the civil war and I am having trouble finding which side he served on because the story passed from family member to family member is that he served the confederacy but the artifacts we have are union. Any info would be helpful
