Jack Taylor â Evertonâs Son of the Rock
Thomas Keates (1928)
There must have been something in the water in Dunbartonshire in the second half of the 19th Century. Between 1889 and 1897, six footballers with strong connections to the Clydeside town of Dumbarton represented the Toffees. First there was Alex Latta, followed by Richard âDickieâ Boyle, Abe Hartley and the Bell brothers (John and Laurie). But only one, John âJackâ Taylor, would get his hands on silverware whilst associated with the Toffees â albeit after an agonising series of near-misses. One of the true greats of Evertonâs early decades, this moustachioed âJack of all tradesâ remains Evertonâs seventh highest appearance maker in all competitions.
