I am putting a piece of it here for others who are having difficulty with this line as this may help someone. The following research is a study of the lives of Mathew Young and his wife Lucinda (surname unknown) and their four children, Sampson, Emeline J., Ester/Easter/Esther, and Hannah E. It also includes all known grandchildren and great grandchildren. Mathew Young was probably born between 1800 and 1815 in Tennessee. He does not appear on any census record. His existence is documented from records found in Morgan County, Tennessee. Lucinda Young was born in 1815, in Tennessee. Interestingly, this family seemed to go back and forth between Fentress and Morgan County. Lucinda and the children were listed in the 1840, 1850 and 1860 censuses of Fentress County, yet they never owned land in that county. Instead, they bought and sold land in nearby Morgan County. (Part of this land was situated in the portion of Morgan County that became Scott County.) Mathew and Lucinda were married before 1832. Their first child, Sampson Young, stated on his Union Army Pension Application that he was born on June 27, 1833, in Fentress County, TN. The next year Mathew and Lucinda were living in Morgan County where Mathew Young served on Jury Duty in 1834, 1835, 1836 and 1837. In the 1850 Census of Fentress County Tennessee, Lucinda Young was 35, Sampson 16, Emeline 14, Ester 12, Hannah 10. On November 17, 1854, Sampson Young, Emeline J. (Young) Duncan, Ester Young and Hannah E. Young sold two 50 acre tracts of land (100 acres) in Morgan County to James Sandusky. It was the same land on Black Wolf Creek that they had inherited from their father. (Scott Co. Deed Book A, p. 216) Although Lucinda was not named in the deed, she signed the document along with Sampson and Emeline. On the same day, November 17, 1854, Lucinda and the children bought 250 acres of land from James Sandusky. It was located "opposite where Lucinda Young now lives." (Morgan County, Original Deed Book M, p. 237-239.) Anyone working on this family? Dianna Albertson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
