I have the following on Joshua Younger, (son of Littleton Purcell Younger): b 1836 Liberty, Clay, Mo, Usa d bef 1868 Linn, Or, Usa m 21 Jan 1864 Linn, Or, Usa, Edith Coshow I don't have access online to the 1850 MO census, but I am sure you would find him there with his father. There are descendants of Littleton you should be able to contact at the following: http://genforum.genealogy.com/younger/ Just post: Littleton Purcell descendants, and that will get their attention, if it hasn't here. Good luck. (And they were cousins to the outlaw Younger Brothers.)

I don't know if there is any connection though, darn it. The only record I can find is a marriage date of 21 Jan. 1863 in Linn County, Oregon, of Joshua and Edith Coshow. My grandfather told me that his grandfather Joshua came from Missouri. Grandfather also told me that Joshua was a cousin to the Younger Brothers that rode with Jesse James. I wonder if he was kidding? They seem to have hid out every time a census was taken. I'm having a hard time tracking anything down on them. Joshua's father could have been Littleton Purcell Younger, born 1813 in Montgomery County, Kentucky, died 23 June 1893 in Brownsville, Oregon. (I took a photo of his tombstone last time I was in Brownsville.) He arrived in Oregon in September 1853.
