Prince Albert Taylor Jr. (January 27, 1907 – August 15, 2001) was an American bishop of The Methodist Church and the United Methodist Church, elected in 1956. When he died he held the distinction of the longest tenure of all living United Methodist Bishops at that time. Only one other Bishop remained from those elected in 1956: Bishop Ralph Edward Dodge. And as it happened, Bishop Dodge was but two days older than Bishop Taylor! No other Bishops elected before 1956 were alive in 2001. Bishop Taylor was also one of only three remaining African American Bishops elected by the Central Jurisdiction of The Methodist Church. The others were James Samuel Thomas and L. Scott Allen.
