Biography

Thomas Young was born in Dover, Strafford County, New Hampshire. He deposed that he was about 64 years of age in 1717. He was the son of John Young and Sarah Unknown. He was a servant of Thomas Canney in his early years [1]

John was married about 1680 to Mary Roberts of Dover. This is an estimate based upon the birth of their first child in 1681. Mary was the daughter of Thomas Roberts and Mary Leighton. [1]

Thomas Young died in Dover after March 18, 1727, the date of his will. [1]
