Age 78 years, 10 months, 16 days. He moved with his parents from Indiana to Kansas in 1857 settling in Red Vermillion Township, Nemaha county. He was married to Martha J. Niles March 28th, 1868. To this union were born eleven children, six of them precede him to the better country. His wife died October 12, 1915. Five children: Mrs. Ella McAferty, Mrs. Ada Stone, Dola P., Ira E. and Edmund Young, eight grandchildren three great-grandchildren are left to mourn his departure. During the Civil War Mr. Young enlisted in Company B, 11th Kansas Cavalry, serving his country to the close of the war and was honorably discharged. He was brought up in the faith of the Quaker church and while he was not a member of a church, he often bore testimony to saving faith in Jesus Christ and was strictly honest. He would rather be defrauded than to defraud. He leaves to his posterity the heritage of an honest straight-forward life. Funeral services were held at New Eden church conducted by Rev. N.A. Bland, assisted by Rev. D.N. Rose. Interment was made in the America City cemetery. The pall bearers were returned soldiers: Ed Wilson, James Alexander, Bonnie Booth, Artie and Leslie Jones, and Iver Johnson. Nearly all the old soldiers of Corning were present. The singing was by Mrs. Mabel Alexander, Mrs. Minna Alexander, Charlie Wilson and Tom Morgan. Mrs. Beck presided at the piano. Mrs. Minna Alexander sang "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." [Martha and Andrew lost three children in November 1887. There was an epidemic of some sickness. Bertha (14) died November 7, Carrie (2) died November 20, and Cora (9) died November 30. Ella (18), and possibly other siblings were sick with the same illness, but survived.]
