• Notes

  The following record in Chalkley might apply to this William since one of William's sisters married a Henderson. Page 107.--21st November, 1772. David Henderson, son of Danl. Henderson, puts himself apprentice to William Young, blacksmithearn his art, trade or mystery for 4-1/2 years. Teste: Wm. Robertson, Wm. Anderson. In any case, in 1770, William's brother John sells him some of his land according to the following Chaukley record: "DB 16, pg 193, 19 March 1770: John and Margaret Young to William Young, 53 ac, both sides of Middle River; Lines and Corners; Alexander Craig, John Hall; Land patented to John Young 20 July 1768; Test Thos. Madison, Robert Young, Francis Brown; Delivered to Wm. Young 25 June 1773." If he obtained land in 1770, it usually indicated that he was at least 21 years of age at this point in time. I've calculated his birthdate on this record. It is my theory that William is the son of William of Cecil Co., MD. He is suing William, Samuel, and James Anderson as well as George Glenn for not paying him 18 lbs that they each owed him in 1791. George Glenn was of Naked Creek. I am assuming they all were. In May of 1792 when this case was still going on, his witnesses that supported his cause were William Curry, John and Jane Blair. William Young did not attend because he was aged and unable to. This last statement is what suggests he was at least of John and James Young's age of Naked Creek and a probable brother or cousin.
