Sir Frederick Williams-Taylor (October 23, 1863–1945) was a Canadian banker. He was general manager of the Bank of Montreal. Born in Moncton, New Brunswick, the son of Ezekiel Moore Taylor and Rosalind Beatty, Williams-Taylor joined the Bank of Montreal in 1878. He was appointed Assistant Inspector, Head Office in 1897; Joint Manager, Chicago in 1903; Manager in London, England in 1906; and General Manager in 1913. He married the former Jane Fayrer Henshaw, daughter of Mr. Joshua Henshaw of Montreal in June 1888, and they had a daughter, Brenda Germaine Henshaw Williams-Taylor. In 1917 their daughter married Frank Duff Frazier, who came from a prosperous Boston family. Their daughter Brenda Frazier was the famous American debutante popular during the Depression era. Just before her daughter's wedding in Montreal in December 1917, Lady Williams-Taylor was painted by the Swiss-born American society artist Adolfo Muller-Ury at Nassau in the Bahamas, after which he attended the wedding ceremony. Frederick Williams-Taylor was knighted in 1913, and combined his middle name and birth surname into a new hyphenated surname. He received an honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from the University of New Brunswick in 1915.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frederick Williams-Taylor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
