Research

Uncertain, but a Charles Young appears in the Kanawha Land Book. This may or may not be our Charles, so it's parked in the research pending a more thorough look by a future genealogist. To wit:

"Charles Young Enters 50 acres by the above Warrant [Henry Newhouse & John Baxter at 4mile fork of Coopers] No. 4678 in Kanawha County on Fallingrock Creek, a branch of Elk River, beginning on a line of John Teays [?] & Wm. Nylers Survey on said Creek, thence with one line of the same and leaving the said survey and running in toward Elk River for quantity. June 28th, 1826.^[3]
