MINNIE VIOLA TAYLOR
Minnie Viola Taylor was a country girl, but unlike the one in the song lyrics by Dottie West, Minnie did not remain a country girl. Her journey led her from the farms and fields of Cogan House Township to the coastline of Chile, the shores of England and much of the United States. Her life was edged in tragedy, energized by her passion for learning and framed by a sense of duty to serve others.
On Oct. 29, 1876, Ellis and Mary Ann Alexander Taylor welcomed Minnie into the world. The Taylors lived between Liberty and Nauvoo, in Tioga County, at that time. Within three years the family had moved to Cogan House Township, bought a 100-acre farm near the village of Beech Grove and added a son to the family tree. Minnie was later enrolled at Beech Grove School, just a short walk from her home.
