J. Paul Taylor and his late wife, Mary Daniels Taylor, were married for 62 years. She died on January 10, 2007 of pneumonia. The couple had seven children, 17 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. In 2005 the Taylors deeded their historic property on the Mesilla plaza to the state of New Mexico. Upon J. Paul’s Taylor’s death their home, the historic Barela Reynolds property which the couple purchased in 1951, will become the state’s seventh monument. They were avid collectors of Spanish Colonial art, and have also donated all furnishings and religious art in their home to the state of New Mexico.
Taylor comes from one of New Mexico’s most historic political families. His mother was Margarita Romero y López, whose Spanish ancestor, Cristóbal Baca, accompanied Juan de Oñate during his second expedition to the New World. His great-grandfather was Miguel Romero y Baca, who founded Las Vegas, N.M., in 1851. Miguel Romero’s son, Trinidad Romero, was one of the founders of New Mexico’s Republican Party. In 1877 Trinidad was elected as the New Mexico delegate to the U.S. Congress.
