In 1830, Peter Coan was the first person to settle this Wayne County area. In 1847, Taylor Township was constructed. Jared Sexton was its first supervisor. The township was named for General Zachary Taylor, who was then known for his victories in the Mexican War. On January 12, 1863, this settlement was given a post office as Taylor Center. Mr. Sexton served as its first post master. That office remained in operation until February 15, 1914.
the City of Taylor is 35 years old, the community has a rich heritage that dates back to the 1800s. The first registered property owner was Peter Coan, who purchased an 80-acre parcel from the United States government in 1830.
Originally, Taylor was part of Ecorse Township, but area residents found that they lived too far away to participate in the civic affairs and functions of the township. Because of this, the residents petitioned to form a separate community. The petition was granted in 1847.
Largely an agricultural community, Taylor Township grew steadily over the years, particularly after the opening of the Ford Rouge Plant. In May of 1968, Taylor Township residents voted to adopt the charter that incorporated the City of Taylor.
From that day until Stanley A. Grendal became the first postmaster of Taylor on October 7, 1958, the town had been serviced by several adjacent post offices.
The most recent years of Taylor's history have been characterized by development and improvement. No longer agricultural, the community boasts comfortable neighborhoods, great schools, a variety of shopping opportunities and several industrial parks.
In 1996, President Clinton visited the City to dedicate the Public Works building and the renovated City Hall -- a historic day for Taylor. in 1998, Andrew Cuomo, the Secretary of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, became the latest dignitary to visit the community. He praised the City's plan to develop the Southwest section of the community, calling the Villages of Taylor "a model for the nation".
