Leeroy Taylor – John Campbell House<\/b>
\nThis house was originally a log cabin. While it has long been known as
\nthe John Campbell house, it is on land once belonging to Leeroy Taylor
\nand at least one well-informed local historian believed the house was
\nbuilt by Leeroy Taylor. Over the years additions have been made to the
\noriginal building until now the log cabin is entirely surrounded by
\nadded rooms, but with the logs still visible in some rooms. It has been
\noccupied by descendants of John Campbell for several generations with a
\ndescendant, Mrs. Jo Campbell Keys, now residing there. The house is
\nlocated at the end of a lane leading into Muddy Fork Road about a mile
\nfrom Leesburg. Leeroy Taylor’s son, William, is buried beside Muddy
\nFork Road near its intersection with Fairview Road.<\/p>\n

p.192:
\n… A single grave, that of William Taylor, is located beside Muddy
\nFork Road near Leesburg Presbyterian Church.<\/p>\n

p. 281:
\nMargaret [Campbell] (1771-1852 Louden County, Tennessee, married
\nWilliam Taylor, son of LeRoy Taylor. She was the daughter of John and
\nIsabella Pomeroy Campbell.<\/p>\n
