     Samuel was born circa 1655. He was the son of Samuel Young I. He married Mary (-----) circa 1675 at Accomack Co, VA. It is likely this Samuel Young was a young man, newly married in 1679, when he apparently was named as a godfather in Northampton County. His gift of a heifer to Elizabeth Church would have been to the daughter of his neighbor, Thomas Church.. Samuel died before 19 February 1695 at Accomack Co, VA. Samuel Young was deceased, intestate, by 19 February 1694/5, when his son, another Samuel Young, exchanged 100 acres of his father's 300 acres near Parksley with John Marvel, Junr for 100 acres of land and marsh "whereon William Jarman now dwells at Back Branch neare Hunting Creek" (Acc Co. Wills & Etc. 1692 - 1715, part 1, p. 125). The first deed here states that Samuel Young's "Father-in-Law" (step-father) and his mother were living on the Robinson/Young land. On 1 Mar 5, 1699, Samuel Young deeded William Hudson 50 acres (Acc Co Wills & Etc. 1692 - 1715, part 1, p. 399) and, on 6 Feb 1706/7, Samuel Young deeded to Francis Young 100 acres, part of 300 acres "which my father Samll Young bought of Lawrence Robinson, except ye thirds due Mary Hudson now lawful wife of William Hudson" (Acc Co Wills & Etc. 1692 - 1715, part 2, p. 234). On 1 Dec 1724, Samuel Young deeded Francis Young another 100 acres, "land whereon we both live," in exchange for 4,000 pounds Tobacco in cash and "Francis to give Samuel good & sufficient mainteanance for full term & time of his natural life & at his decease to give him Christian burial" (Acc Co Wills & Etc. 1715 - 1729, part 1., p. 578). In fact, it appears Samuel Young, the third, sold 350 acres of his father's land, when his father only owned 300 acres. Perhaps the 50 acres deeded to William Hudson in 1699 was either a mortgage or a life estate. These deeds show that not only was this Samuel Young deceased by 1695 and that he left a son Samuel Young as his heir, but that he also left a widow, Mary Young, who had married William Hudson.
