Clement Young likely married Rosette around 1840. One may speculate from the 1850 Census that Dinah Wright may be the mother of Rosetta. Thus Rosetta's maiden name may have been Wright. Other possibilities exist.

The young children listed in the 1880 Census are listed as the children of Clement and Harriett Young. It is very possible they could be the children of their daughter, Ann E. Young, as Ann E. Young is noted in the 1900 Census as having 2 children, but the children are not living with her during the 1900 Census.
