I have a 1st American edition of " The History of the Adventures of Joseph Andrews and his friend Abraham Adams" by Henry Fielding. It was printed in 1791 in Philadelphia by Henry Taylor. I would like to find more information about Henry Taylor. I am quite a dunce when it come to searching on the computer so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Bill

I can't track down very much info but apparently he died in 1791 as there are several references to the settling of his estate in that year. Those references and listings for a number of books published by him can be seen at the link below. If you load this text document and then use your browser's 'search' for Henry Taylor you should find them.
