According to Jeremiah Youngblood, A Genealogy by Dorothy Morris Quaife:

"On arriving in Arkansas [Ambrose and Martha Youngblood] settled on Long Creek, a branch of the White River. This was some 10 miles south of the Missouri State Line and about three miles southeast of the little village of Denver. Nearby was as settlement known as Shaver, scarcely more than a trading post and gone, now, for many years. The rich bottom lands of Long Creek provided ample farming space and the surrounding hills, covered with dense forests, were abundant with wild game of many varieties. (Ambrose was well known to be an avid hunter and an excellent marksman, as were many of the other Youngbloods.) Here, he homesteaded some 165 acres of land in Section 25, Township 20 North, Range 22 West. Other land in the immediate vicinity was acquired, although records of this were evidently lost in a courthhouse fire. At his death, the lands not previously disposed of were divided amongst his six children."

According to Jeremiah Youngblood, A Genealogy by Dorothy Morris Quaife, Ambrose Youngblood was the son of Jeremiah Youngblood. Ambrose married Martha Fanning around 1817. Initially, they lived in Lawrence Co., Alabama near his (widowed) mother. About 1824, Ambrose and Martha moved to Wayne Co. Missouri. By 1829, Ambrose had bought land in Morgan co. Illinois.

"By the end of 1832, Ambrose Youngblood had amassed 240 acres of land lying near the head of Apple Creek, some two miles northeast of the present town of Nortonville, Illinois. This area became known as "Youngblood Prairie" and the nearest settlement was called "Youngblood". (This was later Nortonville.)"
