GEORGE HENRY YOUNG, son of Capt. George and Nancy, was born at Nuanesburg, New 
York, March 18, 1817; studied medicine at Schenectady, New York, and at 
Fairfield (Herkimer county), and was graduated from Castleton in 1837.  Among 
his preceptors was Dr. Theodrick Romeyn BECK, and among classmates was Dr. 
Nathan S. DAVIS, for long of the Chicago Medical College.  He practiced a few 
years in Albany and Schoharie counties and came in 1843 to Elkhorn.  He had 
married, March 21, 1838, Hester, daughter of Peter and Ann HILTON.  Doctor 
YOUNG was a student of his profession until the end of his life, and seemed to 
keep easily in step with the advance of medical knowledge.  He died December 
28, 1891.  Mrs. YOUNG was born at Sharon, New York, October 24, 1817; died 
December 31, 1894.  Their son, George H., follows his father's profession.  A 
bright boy died in 1864, in his ninth year.  There were daughters: Ann, Mary, 
Hester, Helen.
