This website
contains the history of the Young family who originated
in Scotland at the farm 'Cleughead'. The story starts
from James Hair Young, the first of the Young family to emigrate
to New Zealand. BASIS
Using as a basis the booklet entitled "James and
Harriet Young of Hopedale Farm Koromiko and ther
descendants 1862-1991" prepared by the Reunion
Committee led by Norman Young, an attempt has been made
to produce a consistent tree with all dates and places of
births, marriages, divorces, and deaths.
Approximately 360 people (see Index on left-side panel)
are mentioned in the booklet - these are mainly people
who are or were part of the Young family. Other friends
may be mentioned, but sometimes their names do not appear
in the Index.
CORRECTIONS
It is inevitable that not all information has become
available via usual sources (see the many (when ?) and
(where ?) questions within the pages). Anyone knowing any
of the missing data is asked to contact the author (Clive
Pollard) via the comments form,
or personally by e-mail to clive@ceepol.com.
There are several cases of dispute of names and dates
within the Young history booklet, which should be simple
to correct by anyone who has the exact information (e.g.,
spelling of Allan or Alan, Frances or Francis, some
dates, etc.). If you find any mistakes, please provide
corrections.
As a member of the Young family, you may be in contact
with one or more of the other members of your family.
Please refer them to this website and ask them to provide
additional information if available.
PHOTOS
Some of the pictures that have been scanned in from the
booklet do not look very good on the site. However, they
do download and print out successfully. Anyone wanting
copies of these pics can also ask via the website.
If anyone has other photos that
they would like to see on the site, especially of the
older members of the family, they should send them to the
author, indicating whether the original photos should be
returned. If possible, send the photos already scanned
electronically, and either in GIF or JPG format.
STORIES
It is particularly interesting to read the stories
available on the earlier years of the family, but this
does not mean that more modern stories are also not of
interest. Anyone with interesting stories to add to this
site is asked to send them to the author.
INDEX
The full Index shows the names of those who have complete
webpages in italics. The Index is based on first name(s)
and is divided into parts - see left-side panel.
Thanks
Clive Pollard
