  • Notes 
    • The Taylours were a Sussex family who prospered through a college friendship between Thomas Taylour and Sir William Petty. When Petty became Surveyor-General of Ireland under Cromwell, he recruited Taylour to assist him with The Down Survey. Ultimately Taylour was uncredited for his contribution. Taylour sold his lands in England and took possession of a large estate in Ireland centred on Kells, Co. Meath. He occupied a number of important posts such as Deputy Receiver General, Vice Treasurer and, prior to his premature death aged 51 in 1682, officiated as Treasurer-at-War. His son Thomas was created a Baronet of Ireland in 1704 and sworn onto the Privy Council in 1726. The 1st Bart's grandson, another Thomas, was created Earl of Bective Castle in 1760. His wife Jane was the eldest daughter of Rt Hon Hercules Langford Rowley by Elizabeth, Viscountess Langford. They had a large number of children, including Lady Henrietta Ponsonby and her eldest brother Thomas (1757 \endash 1829) who was created Marquess of Headfort in December 1800.
