Memorable Manitobans: George Nelson Taylor (?-?)

Architect.

Taylor appears to have worked in British Columbia before arriving at The Pas around 1915, where he was responsible for the design of several prominent buildings. In August 1923, he moved to Sheridan, Wyoming then, two years later, to Denver, Colorado. His whereabouts after this time are, as yet, unknown.
