I am that Grenville Younger!  - GG grandson of John & Ann [nee Curry] Younger

My John & Ann arrived in Melbourne in 1856, went to Yering shortly afterwards, purchasing land there in 1861. They followed some other relatives here, who also went to Yering about the same time. John Curry Younger my G grandfather.

Glad [love to!] to have contact, I am always interested to learn more of the story.

Hi,

My GGF was Adam Edward Young who died in charters Towers Queensland in 1902 and from his death Registration I had that Adam's parents were Adam Edward Young and mother Kate Hayes and I thought that he must have came out from the UK for the North Queensland gold rush but an astute Rootschatter found that he was actually born in the Colony of Victoria in 1864 with his parents coming out as single persons for the Victorian gold rush then marrying in Victoria in 1862.

His parents being Catherine Hayes and Adam Young

I purchased a copy of the marriage certificate for Catherine Hayes  and Adam Young to get any important research information that I could and now I would like to find out more about Adam Young and Catherine Hayes starting off with Adam.

What I know

The 1862 marriage certificate states that Adam's Young was 30 and born in Berwickshire Scotland and his mother was Elizabeth Currie and father John Young.  Catherine Hayes was 21, born in County Limerick Ireland and her parents were John Hayes and Elizabeth Quinley.

I would appreciate any information on on Adam Young (Adam edward Young) and his family.  Adam was born in Berwickshire Scotland around 1832 whose parents were John Young and Elizabeth Currie.

Regards

Gerry
