Passport Applications - Flemen Coffee Taylor - 1919, 1920, and 1921

Flemen Coffee Taylor, son of Richard Fleming Taylor and Elizabeth Jane Paxton, was born 9 November 1877 in Cromwell.  The first Passport application is for Flemen and his wife, Sarah (Hernandez), to travel to Mexico City, Mexico; he states that their official residence is Birmingham, AL; that from 1905 to 1908 he resided in Mexico City; that he is a mechanical engineer; and that he seeks to travel there as an agent for a manufacturing company.

His second application, the following year, states that his permanent residence is Beaver Dam; that he has been in Mexico City for a year "on business."

His third application, filed about one year later, states that his permanent residence is Ensley, Alabama; that he is living in Tampico, Mexico; and that he is there on business on behalf of the Freeport-Mexican Oil Company, working as an engineer.

Flemen, his wife and daughter, are shown living in Beaver Dam in the 1930 and 1940 census. They had at least one child, a daughter, Sarah May (Mae), born in Mexico in 1920.

Flemen graduated from the State College of Kentucky, in Lexington, Class of 1902, and gained his Masters Degree in 1905.

Flemen died 23 October 1951 in Pierre, Hughes County, South Dakota at age 73.  He is shown buried in Riverside Cemetery in Pierre.  Although he spelled his first name as Flemen, I found him listed as Fleman in several places.
