Lauren, Many thanks! In the Washington Co. Marriages index, I'm sure that John/Mag. MILLER 12/18/1807 are the parents of John/Eliz. YOUNG 11/30/1847. John and Magdalena/Maddelena also had a son George, which could be George W. in the marriage index. The Lutheran Church Graveyard in Locust Grove info on John and Magdalena has dates which confirm a second pedigree file I have, which I've hesitated to merge without some additional confirmation!
