David is the son of immigrants, Patrick and Jenett Young, who both are buried in the old cemetery in Crawfordsville, IA.

David was married to Susan Catherine Zickefoose (they had one child), when living in Crawfordsville, IA. Susan died and is buried at Asbury Cemetery, located between Olds and Crawfordsville, IA.
Child:
Caroline Frances Young b. 29 April 1854 Wayne Township, Henry Cty Iowa d. 26 Nov 1953, Wichita Park Cem., Acacia section D, Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas.

David remarried to Sarah J. Shaw and they had eight children. For an unknown reason they later moved to Bedford, Taylor County, IA. Their oldest child was Frank, who stayed in Crawfordsville, IA. The second son, John Charles, moved to the Chicago area and in about 1917 went to Scotland and found the hometown of his grandparents, Bathgate, Scotland. He wrote home about his visit to the Bridge Castle, which was home to the Young family when they were Earls and Lords of Linlithgow in the 1500-1600s.

Obituary:
The death of David Young came as a surprise to his friends and neighbors. He had been ailing for some years, but had recently returned from a short stay in Texas. He seemed about as well as usual, having been about the house and on the streets. On Sabbath forenoon no uneasiness was felt by the family, though he was not quite so well as before. By Sabbath afternoon however his digestion gave evidence of having quite given way, and a six o'clock Monday morning he passed quietly and peacefully to his reward.
David Young was born in Champaign County, Ohio, Aug 23, 1820 (Newspaper typo, if corrected should read 1829). In 1845 he with his family moved to Iowa, living in Washington and Henry counties until 1882 when he came to Taylor county to remain until his death. His residence was in and near Lenox until three years ago when he came to Bedford.
He leaves a faithful wife and eight children who survive and mourn his loss.
He united with the Presbyterian church in 1851. In 1852 he was ordained a ruling elder and in that useful office rounded out a full half century of active service.
His children have all followed in his steps and are active workers in various churches. Robert Young his younger brother is now the only survivor of his generation.
The life of David Young was a strong, useful, normal, well rounded life. His personal character and influence are seen in his descendants. His sentiment on religious and moral issues were correct. His influence was always positive for all that was clean and upright and Christian. He was a man of more than ordinary intelligence and force of character. His clear and steadfast Christian faith leaves nothing over which to spend a moments regret, except the loneliness of parting.
The funeral services were held at the home at 10:30 Wednesday morning. On the 12:36 train the funeral party left Bedford for Lenox, where the body was laid to rest in the family lot in beautiful Lenox cemetery.

Quietly Passed Away.
David Young died Monday morning at 6:15, at his home in North Bedford, aged 76 years, 12 days.

Mr. Young had been ill for many months, and recently made a trip to Texas hoping to there regain his health. But all proved futile; it seemed that the change of climate did him harm rather than good, for when he returned it was evident that he had not long to live.

Monday morning the end came. Peacefully, as a tired child going to sleep, Mr. Young closed his eyes and without a struggle passed away to that bourne from whence no traveler e're returns; where sorrow, sickness and partings are no more.

The funeral services will be held at the home tomorrow at 10:30 a. m., conducted by Rev. Barackman. At 12:36 the funeral party will leave for Lenox and the remains will be interred in the cemetery at that place.
