Lillie was born after the death of her father, Benjamin Franklin Taylor, who had told his wife (Mary Frances Durham Taylor) that he would like the child named after him if it were a boy. Mary Durham Taylor honored his request anyway even though Lillie was a girl, so her full name is Benjamin Franklin Taylor, but she was always referred to as Lillie.
