General Notes: Husband - Newton Bort Young


He was the third born of his parents' children, and attended school for a while in his boyhood. He then began industrial life, working in the woods at lumbering for his father, and afterwards worked out for others until 1889. He then bought the old Young homestead, where he then resided, engaged in agriculture. Owing chiefly to the excellent springs in that vicinity, his place was at one time much used for camp meetings. Like his father, Mr. Young was a Democrat, and served as township treasurer, which office he held for five years or more.
