Notes

Internet trees have two different Thomas Youngers trying to use the same sources. They are probably cousins.

1. Thomas Younger. b. 1791. Lived the last part of his life in Cedar County, Missouri, died and is buried there. Wife Sarah Church.

2. Thomas Younger. This profile. b. 1798. Lived the last part of his life in Searcy County, Arkansas, died and is buried there. Wife Ellender London.

Time has been spent to separate the children of these men. It is not clear with current sources if Nancy, James and Rebecca belong here or somewhere else.

Dina, should James be removed as Thomas' father? The bio here mentions that parents are unknown. Any idea how he got attached?
