I'm not 100% sure but I don't think there are any deities in Taoism. I thought it was more a way of life for one to follow.

This seems to have some basic info:- http://www.religioustolerance.org/taoism.htm

I tend to respect this site http://www.religioustolerance.org/taoism.htm

As a Eastern Philosophy it is more non-theistic than anything else. So not so much a belief in deities.

It's not much, but this identifies all their deities:

The practices and principles you can find by looking at the current branches.
