He also compiled the history of the village of Mayport, FL, which is on the Spanish land granted to his ancestor, Andrew Dewees. He was past president of the Wilkinsburg Historical Society and one of the authors of the book, "Images of America - Wilkinsburg." He had been the Archivist and Historian of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church in Wilkinsburg for many years, and was the author of the church's application for a historical marker from the Pittsburgh History and Landmark Foundation.

Shortly following his graduation, he was called to active duty, first at the Signal Corps School in Fort Monmouth, NJ where he received Top Secret (Crypto) clearance and later to Korea where he was attached to the Pusan relief and Rehabilitation Section of the Corps of Engineers, planning the rebuilding of the electrical power distribution in South Korea. For meritorious service there, he was awarded the Bronze Star as well as a Certificate of Appointment as an Honorary Citizen of Korea in appreciation for his assistance rendered to the Korean Relief's Hunger and Sickness Campaign. Following his service, he left the US Army with the rank of Captain. Ed was employed by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation for nearly 30 years in Pittsburgh.

Following his retirement from ABB, Mr. Taylor taught advanced electrical engineering courses for Westinghouse, Carnegie Mellon, and ASEA Brown Boveri.
