Herbert Scott Young

Just thought I'd muddy the waters before I go to bed!

I've just found a death for a Scott Kerr Young in Hull... but it's in Sept quarter of 1889 age 29!!

Then I found a Robert William Young birth in Dec q 1890 (right year if he was 35 in 1925) but it's in Gateshead!

Curiouser and curiouser!!

Forget my last posting - just found these births in Hull:


Scott Kurr Young  Dec Q 1894  9d 273

Robert William Young  Mar Q 1891 9d (247) (I think this is the right ref but it's a bit blurred).

So, okay, they weren't Canadian/American!! 

That really is it for tonight!

Hello Ladies,

There is a reference to a Scott Young, who died in the Great War, who was born in Hull, on Findmypast....

Unfortunately, although I have unlimited access to the BMDs at the moment, it does not include the War references !!

This could be the young man, born 1894, at Hull.

Also, "Scott Young" seems to have been like a hyphenated name if you look at  Ancestry.com....just a thought

Kind regards

JeannieR

Good Morning!!

l will take a closer look into the additional info later today after lve been to take care of my grandad. After speaking with my mum, lve found out there is another large tin of documents at my grandparents which l havent had chance (or the courage) to look at yet.

Mum's had a close look and says there are quite a few certs in there but she never took much notice as she was just sorting through, she did however come across a photograph, on the back it said 'Scott Young' and some letters and numbers, maybe a rank? but she isnt sure.

Mum has full access to everything where as lm just playing the grandaughter role so wont go noseying. Mum and l are both at grandads in the morning so she is going to get the tin out so l can have a look. Needless to say lm going to go stocked with pen/paper and camera!

Maybe there will be something there to help us along. As this really is getting more and more interesting/confusing...only making me more eager to hunt more.

One option l would like to carry out later is to try find out as much as l can on Ethel as l havent even gotten round to searching out her parents yet. And lm going to need her info to compare to any entries on marriage certs and so on.

lve a feeling it isnt going to be an easy task either lol.

I do envy you, Rach. Having a large tin of family documents to investigate. How exciting!

Good luck - and please let us know how you get on - or if you need any more help(or hindrance?)

Hi again all!

lm in the process of adding all the bits of info lve been given by your good selfs!

lve also opened another thread regarding Ethel as lve had a few messages asking me various things so hopefully that thread will help others too.

Jillruss, thankyou, its really great to know someone else is as eager as l am to try figure some of this out. And l am not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, when this tin gets opened my grandad  can not wait to show me some of the info and pictures he has of his .............................Canadian relatives!!!!!!!!

So you were on the right track after all.

ln regard to the war info on Scott, lve found an entry on CWGC and all info given is spot on besides Scotts wife being shown as A.E Young and not E.G Young. lm thinking typo on their part, would you agree? everything else is exactly as you stated. Shame he is in Belgium mind, would have loved to have taken real pics for my grandad.

l promise l shall be back sometime tomorrow evening with l hope a whole new set of facts on Ethel & Co.

Thanks again for everything.

Rachel.
