Don, from "The families of Charles Lee and Henry Washington Younger" a Genealogical Sketch by Marley Brant (she has done a lot of research on this family). Charles Lee Younger was born Dec 28, 1783 in Hampshire Co. VA. He was the son of Joshua Logan Younger and Elizabeth ?Lee (the surname Lee has never been proven by the Younger researchers I am in contact with). His brothers were Peter, Isaac, Henry, and Littleton, he also had several half-siblings. He married first to Nancy Toney on April 13, 1798 Family Quest: Marriage Records U.S. 1691-1850, 4-13-1798, Consent of Joshua Younger and Alexander Toney, Peter Younger, Bondsman. He needed his father's consent as he was only 15/16 years of age. Their two children, born in KY were Milton T. and Elizabeth Darlisco. Nancy died in KY Aug 21, 1807. After Nancy's death, he married Sarah Sullivan Purcell in Clark Co., IN on Aug. 21, 1807. Family Quest: Marriage Records U.S. 1691-1850, Charles Younger to Sarah Sullivan Purcell. Charles had a "common-law" relationship with Parmelia Wilson and fathered two children by his slave, Elizabeth Simpson. Charles and Sarah had six children, one of which was Henry Washington, the father of the "Gang" boys. Henry and Bursheba Leighton Fristoe had 14 children. Our information is close to the same, just a few differences here and there. This line of the Younger family originated in Germany, according to Cole in his autobiography. My line of Younger's originated in Scotland, at least that is what I believe. As I said before, I have never researched the Dalton line and know nothing about them.

You are for sure right about the parents of Adaline Lee Younger were Charles Lee Younger and Parmelia Dorcus Wilson. I should have said that he was from the Cole Younger Outlaw Family, in fact Cole Younger the Gunslinger was his grandson. I have seen Charles Lee also called "Cole" but I don't know if that is correct. As I understand the family: Charles Lee Younger b. 28 Dec 1779 Hampshire, VA [son of Joshua Logan Younger and Elizabeth (Lee) Younger], d. 12 Nov 1854 Osceola, St. Clair, MO. He had four Companions, probably only married to one of them. Companion # 1 Parmelia Dorcus Wilson b. ca 1779 Cass, MO. They had 9 children. One of their children was Adeline Lee Younger b. ca 1836 who married James Lewis Dalton and they were the parents of the Dalton Gang. Companion # 2 Nancy Toney. They had 2 Children Companion # 3 Sarah Sullivan Purcell b. ca 1788 Clay, MO. They married about 1798 and had 6 children. Among their children was Col. Henry Washington Younger b. ca 1810 Lincoln, KY. Ca.1830 he married Bursheba Leighton Fristo b. 6 Jun 1877 TN. They were the parents of three of the James-Younger Gang, Coleman "Cole", James Henry "Jim" and Robert Erwin "Bob" Younger. They joined Jesse and Frank James. ( John Harrison Younger was killed by a Pinkerton Agent in Oceola Mo. in 1873. I don't know if he was involved in this group or not.) Their ill fated bank robbery in Northfield Mn. put an end to the Younger brothers participation and the James brothers got away. Colonel Henry Washington Younger was assassinated in Harrisonville MO. Companion #4 Elizabeth Simpson. They had two children.
