Wilma H., The weather out here has been awful, unless you like the heat (100 deg) and muggy air. I am hoping for some nice days when my husband takes the 10 year old to Chicago for 2 weeks to see grandparents. My older daughter and I plan of trapsing around Clay and Jackson to a few cemeteries, which includes over here in Liberty where Milton may be buried. Have digital camera-will travel. If I get any shots I will have them online for all to grab if they want them at my website. So far I have been working hard on the James lines and have only begun on the Youngers, aside from what Jim Chase and others have mailed to me. I have been lucky to retrieve some of the old sources and people have been kindly sending me what they had. If you have anyone buried in these counties do let me add them to my "name-to-look-for" list while I am about. They leave next week, so cross your fingers for cooler weather-else it may be a month before I go. Linda in KCMO ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wilma C.

If Milton's grave is found, I would love to have a digital pic. Good luck! A couple of questions: 1. Was it Millie Taylor's parents, William Taylor and Rebecca Barnes, who died Nov 1867 and 1840-50? 2. If Milton Younger died in 1854, why would Milly have moved back to her family home in 1840? 3. How do we know Milton's daughter Rebecca died in 1912? In Katharine Younger Wallace's letter to her son, Robert Milton Wallace, I believe the "wild harum, scarum boys" she talks about are Nat Capps (a relative of her son-in-law Bill Capps) and Jim and Buck Crenshaw (relatives of her son-in-law Bill Crenshaw). If someone has more descendant info on Milton's children, I would love to add it to my data base. Many thanks for all the help coming from many directions! Gaye Lynn Stanga gstanga@telocity.com

Thanks for volunteering but my Youngers never left Kentucky. JYG wrote: > Wilma H., > > The weather out here has been awful, unless you like the heat (100 deg) and > muggy air.
