Hi Judy, Joseph Younger and his family, including my great grandfather, are listed in the 1850 US Census for IL in Sangamon Co. There is a son, Joseph (age 12), listed there, but he died young with no heirs. William is the only male son who had children. Joseph's father was Thomas Younger. I'm not sure who Thomas's father was. Any input, anyone??
