No other Young's are neighbors in 1820 ; it's possible William and Thomas stayed in KY. The marriage of "Thomas Young" and Lucy Barbee in Shelby 1811 is a different line. The will does refer seperately to "William Young and Thomas Young".

Some claim this marriage: Thomas Young m. Elizabeth Hughes 18 Mar 1795 in Lincoln, KY not long after brother James Young married Sally Breeding there (5 counties away from Jefferson) but this couple is known to have ended up in Perry Co, KY,
