Stonewall Jackson Youngs, who worked for the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railroad, managed a local baseball team in 1903 and 1904. After his leg was crushed in a work-related accident, he was forced to seek other employment, so he and his wife Henrie ran a hotel near the Shiner railroad station. They moved to San Antonio to operate a boarding house in 1907. In addition, he maintained a modest herd of cattle outside of town. He was listed as a cotton buyer on the 1910 census. At some point, he left the family, leaving Henrie Youngs to support Ross and his two brothers, Arthur and Jack, Jr. Frank Jackson, "Youngs, Ross Middlebrook [Pep]," Handbook of Texas Online, accessed December 29, 2023, https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/youngs-ross-middlebrook-pep.
