Thomas & Elizabeth Youngson of Lancaster

[jh1247]

Hi All,

Seeking Information on Thomas Youngson and Elizabeth Robinson who were married January 1764 at Lancaster. The Info I am hoping for is there birth dates etc and their parents, also the children of Thomas and Elizabeth.
Would be most grateful if you may assist.

Regards,
John.

Hi,

According to Lancs OPC, Elizabeth was a widow when she married Thomas Youngson so Robinson may be the name of her first husband:-

Marriage: 14 Jan 1764 St Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England
Thomas Youngson - Sailor of ye town and parish of Lancaster
Elizabeth Robinson - Widow of ye town and parish of Lancaster

Hi,

In 1788, an Elizabeth Youngson and a George Youngson, both of Lancaster, were transported for 7 years to Australia:-

I thought mother and son, but I think brother and sister as this website gives their ages as 12 and 13 and the crime as theft:-

Dacre 19/5/1771

That seems like an unusual first name to me.  I wonder if it is a possibility for Elizabeth's maiden name as quite often maiden names were used as a childrens' name .

Try just googling "Dacre Youngson" you get all sorts of interesting links!

I'm quite envious! 

possibly this was a family first name as there seems to be a Dacre Youngson born 1740 on one tree.
