While digging in my old files, found the descendants of Joseph W. Younger, who married Susan McCurley. Joe.W. born 10 Dec 1804 in NC married 28 Sept 1824, Maury Co Tenn. Children,: two females born before 1830, died Nancy, 1832, Caoline 1834, Joseph 1837, William Green Younger 1 apr 1839, Juliett 1843, and Emma,l 1847. Joseph died as a teen ager, no issue. Most of the children born in Ill. (1850 census) Have descendants as well. This is the family of Francis Younger of Berkeley Ca. This Joseph was with the Mormon in Nauvoo, Ill and returned to Ky and Tenn. If any are interested, I will post all of the data Francis Younger gave me in 1981. Bette.

Does anyone know anything about Molley Watkins parents besides the Will of her father? If you think looking for your William Younger is bad try looking for William Watkins! nothing to do with above.... I found last night, on my bunch, Coleman Purcell Younger's son, Edward finally married when he was in his 50's to a Sarah from Nova Scotia.

I may be off the thread of this discussion. I am way behind in processing information but- John Smith m Rebecca Younger NC Marriage Bonds 1741-1868. William Smith Bondsman, Thomas Ragland, witness Record #01035; Book #000020393 Rebecca was the daughter of Joseph and Jane Younger Joseph was b abt 1755 MD d aft 9 Aug. 1824 in orange County NC Joseph Younger Will Written 9 Aug. 1824, Probated ? Caswell County, NC To sons William, Aquilla, Joseph, John To daus Barbary, rebecca, Milly, Dolly, Elizabeth Names wife Jane Test: Junia Hall and William Matthis The will was written in Orange County but probated in Caswell County NC. Caswell County was formed from Orange in 1777. The fact that the will was probated in Caswell was probably a reflection of the fact that the County Seat of Caswell was probably closer than the County Seat in Orange County.

NKY submitted: "William Younge settled along the James River in James City County VA 15 Jan 1657" In my notes: Essex County VA Will Book 3:87 1718 William Younge Will -Wife: Katherine -Sons William and Henry (tratc where he now lives to be divided. Boundary witnessed by Richard Bush and Richard Carter -Son: John Younger land bequeathed to William Younge by James Marsh -Daus: Elizabeth, Mary, Kate To the child my wife is now big woth: the land bought of William Smith if it is a male Executors: Wife and sons, William and Henry The question was "Could this be Younger?" My answer is "I don't know". The name Marsh rang a bell with me and I pulled it up in my data base and came up with the family of Mary Younger and Henry Anderson of Kent County MD. Their daughter Elinor married John Marsh. Any connection? I haven't the faintest idea but it is interesting that one of his sons was named Henry.

I have just had an opportunity to focus on your messages about the Fretwell family. You asked if I had any idea when Mary Younger, daughter of Thomas was born. There is no concrete documentation but the father of Thomas, Alexander, died in 1727. Thomas was his oldest son. One sister of Thomas, Elizabeth, was married so it's conceivable that Thomas could have also been married - though there is no proof, let me reconfirm. We do have documentation of his father's birth and he was born in 1681. Using the usual measurements for early marriages, Alexander could have been married by 1701 (he being 20 years old). Since Elizabeth was married, I make an assumption that Thomas may have been the second child and first son. My guesstimate of Thomas' birth would be around 1710 - give or take a little either way. First, recall that Thomas Younger named his daughter Mary Fretwill in his will. The will was written in 1789. We can assume then that Mary married William Fretwell prior to 1789. What you are probably most interested in is the deeds I found this morning in my records that document that it was a William Fretwell to whom she was married. This may not be your William with whom you are so intimately acquainted but a William, nevertheless. Essex County VA Deed Book 24:215 7 Nov. 1747 Timothy (X) Driscoll and Rebecca, his wife of Southfarnum Parish, Essex County VA to William Fretwell of the same for 15 pounds; 100 acres in Essex County VA adjoining John Croxton, Francis Browne, James Booker and Thomas Miller being the land whereon Timothy Driscoll lives. It appears that Timothy Driscoll and William Fretwell exchanged 100 acres on the same day. See the following: Essex County VA Deed Book 24:217 7 Nov. 1747 William Fretwell and Mary, his wife, of Southfarnum Parish, Essex County, VA to Timothy Driscoll for the same for 7 pounds; 100 acres in Essex County adjoining James Jones and Piscattaway Creek it being the land whereon William Fretwell now lives. If Mary was married before the writing of the will, she had been married 42 years at the execution of this deed. Two years later William Fretwell returns this land to Thomas Younger Essex County VA Deed Book 24:353 10 Aug. 1749 William Fretwell of Southfarnum Parish, Essex County to Thomas Younger of Drisdale Parish, King and Queen County for 30 pounds; 100 acres in Essex County "being that parcel of land that was purchased of the sd Thomas Younger by Timothy Driscoll and by him conveyed to William Fretwell. The last entry I have for William Fretwell is the following: Essex County VA Deed Book 27:284 6 Nov. 1754 William Fretwell and Mary, his wife of Southfarnum Parish, Essex County VA to James Booker of the same for 28.3 pounds; 68 acres in Essex County adjoining James Booker, Henry Brown, Keziah Brown, Francis Broughan and Hezekiah Brown being the land that was purchased by William Fretwell of Francis and Christiana Brown, his wife. At the writing of this deed, if these were the same participants that we followed through the will of Thomas and the deeds of William Fretwell, Mary and William would have been married 65 years which would mean they had to be 75 or 80 which is a bit on the extreme side. I think there must be a piece missing. The documentation flows but the years just don't make good sense. Could this be a William who had a son William - both marrying women named Mary? In the 1842 suit of settlement between the Youngers and the Younger executors, instead of Mary Fretwell, a Mary Scudder was named. That brings to mind two possibilities. One is that Mary died before 1842 leaving only one heir named Mary who married a Scudder and that William Fretwell remarried to a woman named Mary. With your extensive knowledge of the Fretwell family, can you help me out here?

Willie...the Bush name and the Carter name are also closely associated with the Essex and the Halifax Youngers. And the name Katherine/Catherine prevails down through generations.

Saw a handwritten "William Younge" ...had a flourish at the end which denotes "er." I believe it was on one of the religious petitions for Essex County.

I understand the difficulty of reading all of these names and settlements. One's head begins to grow dizzy. There is one thing I need to call to your special attention. The children of Thomas (the son of Thomas) who was deceased by 1842 when this suit came to fruition had his children specifically listed so they could receive their father's share of their grandfather's estate. I think by focusing on that you will be able to separate Thomas the son from Thomas the father. I did run across an error in my identification this very morning when I was going back and working of the Fretwell connection. Since Thomas (d 1791) named Mary Fretwell as his child in his will and she was not mentioned in the settlement, I made the assumption that the Mary Scudder had to be the former Mary Fretwell. The deed I found this morning, and will present here on the List, indicates that Mary was still living and was married to William Fretwell in to the 1750s. At the moment I have no idea who Mary Scudder is unless she is some form of the previously named Mary Fretwell. I will get back to that when I return from my errand.

Willie.... I wanted to "chew it up, swallow it, and digest it" as one of my old teachers used to say about reading. I've read it twice...and now I want a disinterested party to read it before I come to a conclusion. I don't want to jump to one, because I possess all of that same documentation...just have not put it together and organized as well as you did it. It's hard for me to read legalese and absorb it quickly, so as soon as I come to a conclusion, I'll let you know. My immediate response is that ...yes, you have proven that Thomas was father of William/Mary Watkins Younger. Now, I'm concerned as to the parentage of William/Patience and what relation they were to the former. And I am also leaning toward the possible fact that William was son of Thomas, who was son of Thomas, who was son of Alexander. And that somehow...all those fifteen children need to be divvied up between the two Thomases. I certainly do appreciate what you did. Remarkable work!!!!

I'm a little surprised at the lack of comment concerning the documentation I put on the Site yesterday. Agree - disagree? Dialogue pro or con? Do we have a consensus of agreement? Can we put the question behind us or is it still open?
