Was this Henry Young a member of the Mississippi Brigade in the Civil War?

Question

In searching for my Young ancestors who were steamboat captains on the Mississippi, I came across the roster of this Civil War group. Henry E. Young is on this roster, but I have no other information at this time on his history.

The ancestor I am looking for is Capt. George F. Young, b. 1855, Cole Co. MO. If you  have any information on him, I would love to hear from you.

Georgia Young Hamilton

Answer 1

Georgia, I would love to help you out on this. Can you give me some more information....Are you wondering if Henry E Young is related to your family somehow or do you know that he is?

What "roster of this Civil War group" was his name in? A muster roll for a company, a list from a Sons of Confederate Veterans camp? Or some other place?

As for Capt. George F Young, I assume that he is "Capt" by virtue of his riverboat life, not the military. And he was from Cole County, Missouri. What kind of information do you need/want about him?
