- Obituary:
Clinton, MO - William Young passed away Thursday evening, at 10 p.m. He was a well known resident of Henry county, Mo., having lived in our city about 13 years. He was born Nov. 25, 1833, at the time of his death he was 88 years, 2 months and 1 day old. In the year of 1860 he was married to Miss Elizabeth Guinn, of Henry county. They toiled together in unity, weaving and making their own clothes and supporting their little family. Regardless of all the drawbacks, in sickness, accidents, the work was done. They were blessed with eleven children. They were also blessed with seventy-two grand children, raised five grandchildren, sixty-seven great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren. Mrs. Young also took care of her sister for three years, Polly Boyles. Where is the young man today or the young woman that would undertake such a task with this great success. They were always ready helpers in time of need. Mr. Young was a faithful Union soldier of the Civil War.
