C.A. was married in Battle Creek, Iowa, on January 1, 1886, to Miss Anna Belle. Six children were born to the couple of which four grew up in Boyd County; Bernice, Isa, Thelma and Albert.

C.A. and family came to Boyd County Nebraska in January of 1889 in a covered wagon, containing their goods, camping along the road way.

From the date of his filing on a homestead some four miles east of Butte, Mr. Youll and family resided on his farm for nineteen years, adding a half section to the onginal tract of 160 acres which he developed into a well tilled stock and grain farm. He sold his farm in 1908 and later managed a feed barn located near the center of the Butte business district. In June of 1910, he purchased the livery stable and hack business of a competing establishment, securing at the same time the contract for carrying the mail between Butte and its railway connection at Anoka.
