Taylor: Weaving the Global Story of a Surname

from $85.00

What if your surname held the threads of history itself? The Taylor name is more than a label—it is a legacy as enduring and essential as the garments that have clothed humanity for centuries. Taylor: Weaving the Global Story of a Surname invites readers on an immersive journey into the lives, labor, and ingenuity of those who bore the name, tracing how their craft, creativity, and resilience shaped communities and societies across the globe.

Step into the bustling workshops of medieval England, where the surname Taylor first took form, born from the vital craft of the "tailour." Experience how this occupational name spread across the British Isles and beyond, and witness the remarkable Anglicization process as families from across Europe adopted "Taylor" upon immigrating to English-speaking lands. Vivid, story-driven vignettes bring history to life, placing you directly into the worlds of individuals who carried the name through guilds, migrations, and global transformations.

This Ancestrio edition works beautifully as a standalone read, offering a rich and captivating narrative of the Taylor legacy. But it can also be personalized: add up to three chapters of your own family history, photographs, and memories, and even create a unique title and cover. The result is a timeless heirloom—a way to honor the past while celebrating your family’s own chapter in the enduring story of the Taylor name. Perfect for weddings, anniversaries, family reunions, or any occasion that celebrates heritage, identity, and connection.
