General Notes: Husband - J. W. Young

---

He was born on the old family homestead in Paint township, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, and in the common schools of the locality received his ele­mentary education, which was supplemented by a course in the select schools of Beaver Furnace. In 1861 he married, but the same year he left his young bride to enter the service of his country. In Clarion County, Mr. Young enlisted in Company E, 10th Pennsylvania Reserves, under Capt. Knox of the same county, and in July, 1861, was sworn into the United States service at Harrisburg for three years, the regiment be­ing among the first to enlist for so long a period. Their first engagement was at Drainesville, De­cember 20, and the Union forces were victori­ous. In 1862, under McClellan, they took part in the seven-days' engagement from Mechanicsville to the James river, and were also in the Peninsular campaign. At Harrison's Landing, on the Fourth of July, of that year, Mr. Young contracted a fever and was sent to a hospital in Philadelphia, where he remained until March, 1863. As he then had rheumatism, he was hon­orably discharged on account of physical disabil­ity and returned home.
For a time Mr. Young engaged in the lumber business, and also built coal boats for the Pittsburgh and Allegheny markets until 1865, when he secured a position as engineer at a furnace in Sligo, Clarion County. Later he engaged in the oil business in Butler County, Pennsylvania, until 1880, when he purchased eighty-five acres, of Daniel Brenneman, in Paint township, Clarion County, and then engaged in its cultivation and im­provement. He erected a good two-story residence and a substantial barn, and the well-tilled fields and neat and thrifty appearance of the place testified to his skill and ability as an ag­riculturist.
In his political views Mr. Young was a Repub­lican, and he was honored with a number of local offices, being auditor of his township one term, school director and secretary of the board three years, and beginning 1890 served as constable of Paint township. In that year he was also appointed census enumerator for Paint and Highland townships. He and his family belonged to the Methodist Episcopal Church, and he was also an honored and prominent mem­ber of Amos Kiser Post No. 475, G. A. R., of Shippenville, in which he served as commander.
