This is yet another part of the Young family mystery. There is a Julia of the right age with David and Zepporah Ream-Young on the 1860 census. I have traced this Julia and the birth day and month are not the same and if I remember correctly she is shown in later years with a husband who is not James Shope. So I don't think this is our Julia. A lot of people have made that connection, but I don't think it is right. If someone has information to prove otherwise I would be interested in seeing it. As for the Nancy listed on the 1860 census with the family, she is Julia's sister Nancy (Nannie) Watkins-Young. The Margery listed on the 1860 census with the family is listed again on the 1870 census with the family as Margery J. A Julia Young does show up on the 1870 census alone with the Barnhart family as a servant. So is this our Julia or is Margery J our Julia? I'm really not sure, but none of the other documentation I have found ever lists Margery as a name for Julia. However, I know William was her father as he is listed on her death certificate and also on her obituary. Her mother is listed under the names Anna (on censuses)/Ideanana (Obit)/Julia (Death Certificate.) I have copies of both of these documents on my family tree attached to Julia. If anyone would like a copy emailed to them just let me know. Sorry if I gave you more questions instead of answers. It seems that's the way this part of the family is. I think if we all keep trying to puzzle it out we'll eventually get it. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
