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.

Despite its libertine reputation, San Francisco was among the first to crack down on a degrading, sometimes-deadly craze that was sweeping much of a starved nation during the Great Depression: competitive endurance dancing.
Dance marathons, also called walkathons to avoid legal and moral scrutiny, were essentially the Netflix dating show of that era. As an emcee entertained the audience with dancers’ biographies over live music, the couples danced, stumbled and dragged each other for weeks on almost no sleep in the pursuit of money and glory.
