I knew I'd seen that name 'Squire' or a form of, before. Funny names these people pick! I think it must have a Kendrick connection going back somewhere because we have:
1881 Swan Hall, Lye
Zechariah Taylor h 67 anvil maker
Eliza Taylor w 51 nail maker
Sarah Taylor daug 30 nail maker
Esquire Taylor son 21 anvil maker
Rosannah Taylor daug 23 nail maker
Zechariah Taylor son 13 scholar
Albert Taylor son 10 scholar
Amelia Taylor daug 6 scholar
Alice Taylor daug 1
All born Lye
Zechariah's wife Eliza was a Kendrick. Found the marriage on IGI. ZECHARIAH TAYLOR - International Genealogical Index / BI
Gender: Male Marriage: 28 AUG 1850 Old Swinford, Worcester, England spouse: ELIZA KENDRICK
EDIT - and even stranger, another one, same year?!
1881 Lye Waste
Sarah Kendrick h (widow) 72 no profession
Sabrea? Pearson aunt (widow) 80 "
Esquire Taylor grandson 21 anvil maker
All born Lye
Is this Esquire the same person recorded twice?!
