My Springtown, Parker Co. family began with David Alexander YOUNG m. to Minerva MATLOCK who migrated from Polk Co. TN in September of 1859 arriving in November of the same year. Their son Henry L. YOUNG m. Elizabeth MORROW. Their son was Willy Alexander YOUNG m. to Jennie Lee ROBINSON. There are alot of us around the area still and in many other states from these strong people and we are very proud of them all.
