Notes: W.H. Young (William Henry Young) was the second son of William Joseph Young (1833-1921) of Flat Rock Twp., Kershaw Co., South Carolina. He predeceased his father, who died July 1, 1921, so W.H. Young was not mentioned in his father's obituary. The style of his tombstone matches his father's.

The death certificate of W.H. Young is the primary document we currently have to link to the maiden name of his mother, Angeline Hammond.
