I did some searching on Maury Co. tngenweb page and found this in the "records": GENEALOGICAL ABSTRACTS FROM REPORTED DEATHS, THE NASHVILLE CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, 1897-1899 By Jonathan Kennon Thompson Smith Copyright, Jonathan K. T. Smith, 2002 WILLIAM "Billy" YOUNGER born Feb. 24, 1808; died Maury Co., Tenn., June 17, 1889; married (1) Elizabeth Wakefield, Jan. 13, 1829; (2) Mrs. Lucinda Dodson, Oct. 26, 1852 -[www.tngenweb.org/records/davidson/nca/nca87-7.htm] as you can see, still no middle initial. Wish I could find the actual obituary - maybe it would name his children. He had a total of 12, I thought I had sent you a list. But, if not, I will.
