    1. [YOUNG] Caroline Young
    2. I found this in the book: The History Of Warren County Ohio Vol. II Page 739 William A. Gallaher, farmer; P.O. Monroe; was born in Turtle Creek Township, Warren Cty. MO. March 8, 1818; he is the son of John and Elizabeth (Nye) Gallaher, the former a native of Penn. of Irish descent, and the later a native of Rockingham Cty. Va. of German descent. A biography of the father appears elsewhere in this work. Our subject was brought up as a farmer and has since been engaged in that occupation; he was married Sept. 15, 1846 to Caroline daughter of John Young, of Turtle Creek Township. They had three children, viz, John Franklin, Horace Q. and Lizzie M.; his children have all had the best educational advantages offered by the schools of Cincinnati, Oxford, and Lebanon. Mr. G. is a Republican in politics, and with his estimable wife, is a member of M. E. Church; he has a handsome residence and 340 acres of well-improved land; his close attention to the minute details of his farm operations is fully attested by the neat and tidy appearance of his premises. Everything is in the best of order and all arranged for the greatest convenience of the residents. Truly Mr. G. is a model farmer; his eldest son, John F. was born in this county Aug. 27, 1849, and, on the 11th of Feb, 1873 married Clara A., daughter of George and Harriet (Keever) Longstreet, and to them have been born Eva. C., Birdie H, Lizzie K., and William L. He owns and occupies 200 acres of land adjoining his father's tract. Of the other son and daughter, Horace Q. is living with his parents, and Lizzie M. is the wife of L. D. Parker, a merchant of Piqua, Ohio. Not any that I know of to be the ones I am looking for yet hoping to help someone fill in some blanks. Judy Born with a twelve foot question, looking for a six inch answer.
