While the City of Taylor is 34 years old, the community has a rich heritage that dates back to the 1800's. 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 and the new community was named Taylor Township, in honor of General Zachary Taylor, an American hero in the Mexican War who would go on to become President of the United States.
