Hi List, I am so delighted that someone started this list. THANKS!!! For over 40 years I have been researching the family of James Young who was in Jackson Co., Tn. early 1800s, perhaps late 1700s. I believe that James' mother may have been Native American, which makes it very difficult. I began to research ALL of the YOUNGs in Jackson Co., Tn. and discovered that they descend from Michael Cadet Young. Because there are several YOUNGs there at a very early date, I believe there must be a familial relationship. I found that Michael Cadet had a son James who sort of drops out of sight, and believe this may be the grandfather of my James in Jackson Co., Tn. I would really appreciate any information about any of these YOUNGs in Iredell Co., N.C. or middle Tn.-Ky. Will be most happy to share information with anyone about this family. Thanks Betty Young Bray
