I am looking for information about my grandfather William Howard Taft Young who married my grandmother Mary Elizabeth Woolen. They lived in Washington, DC and Culpeper, VA for a time. I do not have any information about his family or where he was born. Any information on him would be helpful. Thanks.
My mothers name was Nellie Manola Young. She was born in 1907 and died in 1978. I never met her parents and know almost nothing about them. Their names were Joseph Efrium Young and Mary Frances Lynch. Joseph was born 3/4/1874 and died 7/18/1941. Mary was born 7/12/1876 and died 5/30/1948. Also, I know they were married on 12/28/1892. I have looked them up on every geneaology search engine Ive found but nothing really comes up. I had one of my aunts write down this info on my grandparents before she died but she was pretty old when she did, so I dont know how reliable it is. I also think Marys parents were Wash Lynch and Sarah Cooper but I havent found any info on them either. If you are related to or have info on any of these people, please tell me.
I am looking for information/photograph on John M. Kirby or anyone related to him. He may have been known as Charles M. Kirby or C. M. Kirby. The "M" could possibly stand for "Mack" but that is not known for certain.
He was the son of Rubin Kirby and Permillia "Millie" Ann Allen.
John was born 06 Jan 1854 in Sparta, White Co., TN and died 25 Dec 1900 in Montague Co., TX. He married Mary Elizabeth Young (b. 23 Feb 1868 in Sparta, White, TN d. 19 Jan 1944 in Honey Grove, Fannin, TX) on 13 Jan 1881 in White Co., TN. Mary Elizabeth Young was the daughter of William Young and Eliza Jane Walling
They had the following children:
1. Minnie Lee Kirby b. 1883
2. Mary Elizabeth Kirby b. 1885
3. Oscar Orval Kirby b. 1887
4. Eva Jane Kirby b. 1891
5. Bessie Ovella Kirby b. 1893

Anyone with photographs/information of anyone related to any of the people listed here, please email me at helenmcknight79@hotmail.com
