See Ronald G. Cooper, English Slipware Dishes London, 1984, pp. 78 & 79, where he records twelve other large signed dishes by Talor and notes another armorial example. See the royal armorial example signed 'William Talor', illustrated by Ronald G. Cooper, 'Reflections on English Slipware', The Connoisseur, Vol. 209, no. 840, February 1982, no. 13. Burslem parish records include an entry for the baptism of William Taylor in August, 1624. Another William Taylor, son of Richard and Joan Taylor appears in the Wolstanton register, baptised in December, 1632, see Grigsby, op. cit., p. 52.
