Edmund Dick Taylor : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edmund Dick Taylor
Colonel Edmund Dick Taylor (October 18, 1804 - December 4, 1891) was an American businessman, politician, and soldier from Illinois. He is remembered as the first person to suggest that the United States should issue paper currency ("greenbacks") during the American Civil War. ==Early life== He was born Edmund Richard Taylor in Lunenburg County, Virginia. In later years, he preferred to use his middle name rather than his first name, and used in its short form. Thus he became known as "Dick" Taylor, and his middle initial was written "D" in formal documents. In the fall of 1823, he began general merchandising with Colonel John Taylor in Springfield, Illinois. On 18 September 1829, he married Margaret Taylor (born 28 December 1813 in Kentucky), the daughter of Col. John Taylor and Elizabeth (Burkhead) Taylor.〔(''History of the early settlers of Sangamon County, Illinois'' p. 707. Old Settlers' Society of Sangamon County (Ill.), 1876. )〕
