From Find-A-Grave.
JOSEPH PANNELL TAYLOR
BIRTH: 4 May 1796, Louisville, Kentucky
DEATH: 29 June 1864, Washington, D.C. (aged 68)
BURIAL: Oak Hill Cemetery, Washington, D.C.
He had three brothers, one of whom was Zachary Taylor, and two sisters. All were dead by the time of the Civil War except Joseph.
Joseph was on the Union side. One of Zachary Taylor's sons was a general in the Confederate Army, a grandson was an officer in that army and another grandson was in the Confederate Navy.
I have to wonder whose side Zachary Taylor would have been on had he not died in 1850?
