Elizabeth married Ezra Smith on 9 Jan 1843 in Frederick County, Maryland.

1. Rev. Martin Luther Smith was born on 2 Sep 1850 in Middletown, Frederick, Maryland; died on 1 May 1918 in New Corydon, Jay, Indiana; was buried on 4 May 1918 in Springfield, Clark, Ohio.
2. Lewis Carlton Smith was born on 5 Jan 1853 in Middletown, Frederick, Maryland; died on 12 May 1937 in Pomona, Los Angeles, California.

Other Events and Attributes:

• Alternate death: Between 10 Dec 1881 and 17 Dec 1886

Notes:

He moved from Maryland to the Springfield, Ohio area in 1864.

His will, dated 10 Dec 1881, bequeaths $1500 to his daughter "Elizabeth Smith wife of Ezra Smith."

The 17 Dec 1886 record of his probate is extremely hard to read and follow, but it clearly names, among various other kin, "Martin Smith, grandson", of Arcadia, Hancock County, Ohio. One of the sons of his daughter Elizabeth Young and her husband Ezra Smith was the Rev. Martin Luther Smith (1850-1918), who was buried in Springfield, Ohio, the same place where Daniel Young died and was buried.

The probate documentation also records that "Anna M. Smith" was notified of the ongoing proceedings; this presumably refers to Anna May Derr (1859-1943), wife of Lewis Carlton Smith, who was another son of his daughter Elizabeth Young and her husband Ezra Smith. Lewis Carlton and Anna May (Derr) Smith are of course ancestors of ASF.

Daniel married Mary Magdalena Bowlus on 5 Jan 1819 in Frederick County, Maryland. Mary (daughter of Henry Bowlus and Elizabeth Routzahn) was born in 1799; died in 1855; was buried in Young Family Cemetery, Locust Valley, Frederick, Maryland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

The History of Frederick County, Maryland (citation details below), on page 1332, calls her "Nancy Bowlus."

Notes:

Also called Conrad Jung. Sources differ on whether he was born in Germany or in Maryland. He may have come from Germany with his parents.

"Conrad Young … came to America from Germany about the year 1770, with his wife. Their children were all of American birth. Conrad Young bought 1000 acres of land in Locust Valley, and erected a saw mill, for which he prepared the timber himself. He also farmed the land that he had cleared." [History of Frederick County, Maryland, citation details below]

Conrad married Maria Elisabeth Thomas on 20 Jun 1790 in Frederick County, Maryland. Maria (daughter of Philip Henrich Thomas and Catharine) was born on 26 Jan 1771; died on 22 May 1843; was buried in Young Family Cemetery, Locust Valley, Frederick, Maryland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

Or Jung. His grave at Zion Lutheran Cemetery clearly says "died April 15th 1825 aged 97 Years." Presumably he is the father of the Conrad Young who died in 1813.

Conrad married Mary Magdalene. Mary was born on 30 Sep 1731; died on 9 Oct 1824 in Frederick County, Maryland; was buried in Zion Lutheran Cemetery, Middletown, Frederick, Maryland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
