Another "nothing much there" place, and the supposed naming source does not check out, though I did learn a novel 19th century circumlocution for marriage: "bound in Hymen's chains". Anyway, the gods of Google did not shine upon me, as there are at least two quite famous Taggarts and plenty of kin and offspring to clog the works, but at an rate, I found nothing.

Delete This locale is only notable at the most local level. Wikipedia is also not a directory of every spot on a map. TH1980 (talk) 03:21, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. So far I have found one reference in the Brown County Democrat to the "Taggart community of Hamblen township" in an obituary...speaking of which, there are many references to "Taggart cemetery", "Taggart-Hamblen cemetery", and other variations.

Here is a 1987 article on the Taggart Cemetery which refers to the possibility that it may have once been the site of the first school house in Brown County. Cielquiparle (talk) 10:56, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

According to the Brown County Historical Society in 2020, there is now a historical marker where the first school and church in Brown Couny (actually a meeting house started by Brother Patterson C. Parker of the "Republican United Brethren Church"). Cielquiparle (talk) 11:05, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you mark that obit clip as public, so we can view it? James.folsom (talk) 02:35, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A 1939 article about the historic Taggart Cemetery, also referring to the first school house and church erected in Brown County. Cielquiparle (talk) 11:09, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Only one problem with this... Communities turn out to be just rural areas, in AFD after AFD. Schools and cemeteries are found in rural areas. None of these things demonstrate the presence of a concentration of people rising to the level of a populated place. But I will be back with more detail...

Seriously the # of taggart people is an issue. James.folsom (talk) 02:42, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I tried a alot search tricks with the local paper to limit the hits to places, the only term that found anything was "taggart community" which only had ten hits, so thumbs down on this.James.folsom (talk) 02:53, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
