all I know about.
Nothing known about his wife

John YOUNG

William YOUNG

George W. YOUNG was listed as Cora May's father on her death certificate.
His name was in my mother's address book as living in Arkadelphia, AR. An
Aunt (Dale Kirk's wife) had a William A. listed in her address book as
living in Giltner, NE

VA > TN > IL > MO > IA > NE > KS > OK > AR > MO; some may have migrated
south to AL > AR

Many of them were living in Osage County, Skiatook, OK in the early 1920's.

Tales go that Cora May was part Cherokee Indian. I've been trying to prove
that, but haven't as yet...though I think there may be some truth to it. My
dad Frank Kirk always said they were Scot IRish.
