Esther Tyler, wife of Asa Hoadley could she be Esther Taylor?

According to the Hoadley genealogy (1894) the wife of Asa Hoadley (b. 1762 d. 1834) m. 7 April 1785 Esther Tyler at Waterbury, CT. The marriage record says that she is Esther Tyler d. of Abraham Tyler. Esther was b. 1761 and died 2 May 1837 at Waterbury. I haven’t been able to find a record of her birth that identifies her parents.

Could her last name be Taylor?
Son Artemas Hoadley (1791-1830) m. Alma FRISBIE (1798-1880) their daughter Eunice Almira Hoadley (1822-1894) m. Nathan F. MERRILL (1823-1909). They had a daughter, Ellen Taylor MERRILL, my great grandmother. My grandparents named their second daughter Ellen Taylor.
I haven’t been able to figure out where the Taylor came from, the only thing that makes sense is that it’s a family name. I know that there were TYLERs and TAYLORs in the New Haven, Connecticut area for many years. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks.
