History:

A group of Mormons came to the area to settle in 1878. They built a dam along the Little Colorado River. Unfortunately, the dam was washed out. After reconstructing the dam five times, the group gave up and moved to Silver Creek.

They built the new farming community in 1881. The first name that was suggested for the community was Walker. However, a town in the Prescott area had already taken the name. The story goes on to say, that James Pearce one of the first settlers chose the name.

Pearce named it after John Taylor, who was English born. In John Taylor's early years, he had been a Mormon leader. Taylor suffered a gunshot wound during the time Joseph Smith was murdered in 1844. Taylor translated the Book of Mormon into French and edited “The Mormon”, a church magazine. Later, he became president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Taylor was incorporated in 1966. Today, Taylor is proud of its businesses. Arizona 's only pulp and paper mill is located in the nearby town of Snowflake. Still, ranching is a big industry. Recently 32,000 head of cattle grazed in Navajo County, with most in the Taylor area.
Taylor also draws many visitors. The town's terrific location between the barren deserts to the north and to the mountain ranges in the south make it a great place to take in all the outdoor activities.
