Richard Taylor (January 27, 1826 April 12, 1879) was a Confederate general in the American Civil War. He was the son of United States President Zachary Taylor and First Lady Margaret Taylor. Richard Taylor was born at the "Springfield" family estate near Louisville, Kentucky. The estate was named for Taylor''s grandfather, Richard Lee Taylor, a Virginian who had served in the American Revolution. He had five siblings, named Ann Mackall Taylor, Sarah Knox Taylor, Octavia Pannill Taylor, Mary Smith Taylor and Mary Elizabeth (Taylor) Bliss. Much of his early life was spent on the American frontier with his father Zachary, a United States Army officer. As a young man, he attended private schools in Kentucky and Massachusetts. Although starting his college studies at Harvard University, he graduated from Yale in 1845. He received no scholastic honors, but spent the majority of his time reading books on classical and military history. During the Mexican-American War, Taylor served as the military secretary to his father.
