Life & Career
Taylor was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 30 June, 1888.[1]
Taylor resigned the service on 18 April, 1898 while in command of the "A" Class destroyer Snapper, due to "urgent private affairs."[2]

Great War
On 25 November, 1914, Taylour telegraphed the Admiralty to report that he had changed his last name, describing this as a "necessary step"... which I cannot understand.[4]
