The YOUNG Family History
The first Young in my family line to come to America was Thomas (son of Gregory and ?). Thomas was born in 1579 in London, England. He came to Virginia and Maryland and the Delaware River in1634. Captain Young was a man of good intelligence. He wrote an interesting letter to Sir Toby Matthew in the fall of 1634 in which he spoke of his own plans for exploration to the South Sea, and gave some account of Governor Harvey’s expedition, under the command of Captain Matthew’s far up the country. His son Thomas Young, Jr. Of Chickahominy, was executed January 1676 for his part in Bacon’s Rebellion. (source: "William and Mary Quarterly)
