General Notes: Husband - Adam Young

---

He was born in Alsace, Germany, coming to America in 1840, at the age of twenty-seven, having served seven years in the army. He landed at New Orleans and was there during the yellow fever plague and was employed with a horse and dray in hauling the dead to the trenches. He took the fever, but, through the efforts of a trained nurse, survived. In 1846 he came to Cranberry Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and married. In 1853, after residing near Zelienople for a few years, he bought 110 acres of land in Connoquenessing Township, to which he later added forty acres.
He was an elder in the United Presbyterian church for several years, and in politics, an adherent of the Democratic party.

He and his wife were acquaintances in the Fatherland.
