The \n John Baylor ledgers, 1719-1755, reveal that John Baylor was a wealthy merchant,\n planter, and shipowner. He also served as a burgess, representing Gloucester County in the 1693 General Assembly and King and Queen County in 1718.\n John Baylor's son, John Baylor (1705-1772), greatly increased the family landholdings when he received a royal\n land grant in 1726 in what was to become Caroline County, Virginia. John Baylor was educated in \n England, at the \n Putney Grammer School and \n Caius College, \n Cambridge. While in \n England, he developed a keen interest\n in thoroughbred horses and horse racing, going so far as to\n name his new home, \" \n Newmarket, \" for the famous English\n racing center. He became an important colonial horse\n importer and breeder whose stables greatly contributed to\n the development of American thoroughbreds. \n John Baylor also rendered public\n service to the newly formed county of \n Caroline, as a colonel in the county\n militia and a burgess in 1742-1749, and 1756-1765.\n All four of the sons of \n John Baylor (1705-1772) contributed in\n some way to the American effort during the Revolutionary\n War. \n John Baylor (1750-1808), the heir of \" \n Newmarket, \" while unable to fight due\n to a childhood injury, gave financial support to the war\n effort. He later had difficulties in shedding his\n reputation as a \"Tory\" because he had gone back to \n England in 1778 to marry his cousin, \n Frances Norton (1760-1815) and had to\n live in \n Europe until they could obtain a return\n passage to \n America.\n \n George Baylor (1752-1784) was a member\n of the \n Caroline County Committee of Safety,\n 1775-1776, and from 1775-1777, he was aide-de-camp of\n General \n George Washington. He was commanding\n officer of the \n 3rd Regiment Light Dragoons when he was\n wounded and captured on September 28, 1778. He was\n eventually exchanged and his regiment was consolidated with\n the \n First Continental Dragoons on November\n 9, 1782, which he commanded until the end of the war. On\n September 30, 1783, he received his commission as a Brevet\n Brigadier General.\n \n Walker Baylor served as a lieutenant\n and captain of the \n 3rd Regiment Light Dragoons during the\n Revolution. He along with his other brother \n Robert Baylor, who also served in the\n Revolution, immigrated to \n Kentucky. Later \n Robert Baylor apparently settled in the\n Pearl River area of the \n Mississippi Territory.\n The estate of \n John Baylor (1750-1808) was hopelessly\n entangled when he inherited it from his father in 1772 and\n much of it was lost through his own ineptitude as a\n businessman and the dishonesty of others. However, the\n house and two thousand acres were entailed and could not be\n alienated; these were passed on to his son, \n John Baylor ( ? ), who married \n Maria Ann Roy and produced Dr. \n John Roy Baylor (1821-1897). It was Dr.\n John Roy Baylor's son, Captain \n James Bowen Baylor (1848-1924), who was\n a member of the \n United States Coast and Geodetic\n Survey team.\n The correspondence series contains the correspondence\n from family members, friends, and business associates of\n all the above generations of the \n Baylor family, beginning with Colonel \n John Baylor (1705-1772).

The \n John Baylor ledgers, 1719-1755, reveal that John Baylor was a wealthy merchant,\n planter, and shipowner. He also served as a burgess, representing Gloucester County in the 1693 General Assembly and King and Queen County in 1718.\n John Baylor's son, John Baylor (1705-1772), greatly increased the family landholdings when he received a royal\n land grant in 1726 in what was to become Caroline County, Virginia. John Baylor was educated in \n England, at the \n Putney Grammer School and \n Caius College, \n Cambridge. While in \n England, he developed a keen interest\n in thoroughbred horses and horse racing, going so far as to\n name his new home, \" \n Newmarket, \" for the famous English\n racing center. He became an important colonial horse\n importer and breeder whose stables greatly contributed to\n the development of American thoroughbreds. \n John Baylor also rendered public\n service to the newly formed county of \n Caroline, as a colonel in the county\n militia and a burgess in 1742-1749, and 1756-1765.\n All four of the sons of \n John Baylor (1705-1772) contributed in\n some way to the American effort during the Revolutionary\n War. \n John Baylor (1750-1808), the heir of \" \n Newmarket, \" while unable to fight due\n to a childhood injury, gave financial support to the war\n effort. He later had difficulties in shedding his\n reputation as a \"Tory\" because he had gone back to \n England in 1778 to marry his cousin, \n Frances Norton (1760-1815) and had to\n live in \n Europe until they could obtain a return\n passage to \n America.\n \n George Baylor (1752-1784) was a member\n of the \n Caroline County Committee of Safety,\n 1775-1776, and from 1775-1777, he was aide-de-camp of\n General \n George Washington. He was commanding\n officer of the \n 3rd Regiment Light Dragoons when he was\n wounded and captured on September 28, 1778. He was\n eventually exchanged and his regiment was consolidated with\n the \n First Continental Dragoons on November\n 9, 1782, which he commanded until the end of the war. On\n September 30, 1783, he received his commission as a Brevet\n Brigadier General.\n \n Walker Baylor served as a lieutenant\n and captain of the \n 3rd Regiment Light Dragoons during the\n Revolution. He along with his other brother \n Robert Baylor, who also served in the\n Revolution, immigrated to \n Kentucky. Later \n Robert Baylor apparently settled in the\n Pearl River area of the \n Mississippi Territory.\n The estate of \n John Baylor (1750-1808) was hopelessly\n entangled when he inherited it from his father in 1772 and\n much of it was lost through his own ineptitude as a\n businessman and the dishonesty of others. However, the\n house and two thousand acres were entailed and could not be\n alienated; these were passed on to his son, \n John Baylor ( ? ), who married \n Maria Ann Roy and produced Dr. \n John Roy Baylor (1821-1897).
