He attended Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College (later Virginia Tech) in the 1880s and, thereafter, worked in Roanoke before moving to Christiansburg in 1893. He married Helen May Pelton (1873-1942), and they had three children. Taylor died in 1915 after a long illness and is buried alongside his wife in Sunset Cemetery in Christiansburg.
