note:
In my family the story of the naming of William Taylor is that Mary's brother, a lawyer, came to visit Mary while she was pregnant.... before he left he made her promise to name the baby after him. Being a family of honor and always keeping their word, Mary and Joseph kept their word and named the baby girl William....
