Married Violet Tremaine, she died at the age of 86 on Oct 13, 1823. They had
one daughter, Ruebe (6) and two sons, both before 1774 . ( Note in Samuel Younglove Journal stated that Timothy was a well to do man who had no heirs but a daughter to leave his fortune too.)
October 27, 1754, Timothy was brought with two others before the Kings Agent on Complaint of Ebner Hamblin and Simon Cook, for firing or discharging several guns in the night. They caused a panic, as this signaled an Indian
attack. He was found guilty and sat in the stocks, in the center of town, for one hour, paid his costs and was bound to his behavior.
In 1756 Timothy served in the battle, The Campaign of 1756, out of the Sheffield Company,
In 1768 he was picked from committee to purchase a cow and to see that it was well cared for, for town purposes.
In 1776 he was living in the Green River district of Sheffield. Timothy was a soldier a 1st. Lt. for Captain Peter Ingersoll's 4 Th. company.
July 1, 1776 he served on the Great Barrington Militia, Regiment of Mass., list of officers chosen by several companies in said Regiment as returned by Mark Hoplins and others, field officers dated in Great Barrington on March 26, 1776 and ordered in council on May 6, 1776 to commission those officers. Timothy was one.
The Tories in Berkshire were in a league with those of the same kin, who
abounded on the N. Y. border, then known as the Kings District. The Tories from Great Barrington were reputed to have been in regular correspondence with their brethren in N. Y. There were a great number of them in J. B. including
a well to do and respectable class of men, who were "slow" to adopt to revolutionary measures. Some were religious proclivities, others perhaps by mercenary motives and all by determination not to see and follow the "right course" influenced some. Some of these same men had already defended their town in the wars. Many of these same men had already by word and deed, rendered themselves obnoxious to the more patriotic townsmen. Their headquarters and
place of rendezvous was at the tavern of Timothy Younglove, at the fork of the road, just west of Green River, tradition asserts that this house was the receptacle of plunder and contraband goods. Later on a test bill was given to Timothy among others, to sign and they refused to oppose the British ministry by signing it. Yet later they were served a warning, individually and posted. when they refused to surrender their arms, the arms were confiscated and branded. One gun was taken from Timothy (it was probably the same gun used in the service of the militia.)
On the 24th day of November, 1777, charges were brought against the men as traitors to the cause, (internal enemies). Before a judgment commenced, the men had a change of heart and the charges were dropped with only one man being deported. This information from: Sandy Prochnou
