Charles Young was born about 1812 at Millbrook, Hampshire, the second son of Stephen Young, an agricultural labourer and Mary Eastman. Mary died in 1822 when Charles was 10, and five years later his father remarried to Anne Eldridge. Charles had five siblings and six half-siblings, a couple of whom died in infancy. All of Charles' other siblings stayed near Millbrook and Southampton, working as or marrying agricultural labourers, carpenters, wheelwrights, innkeepers and groomsmen. (I wonder why Charles left?!)

In 1835 Charles was living in the village of Nursling, where he married Sarah Blake on 7 Jun 1835. Witnesses to the marriage were Charles' sister Eliza and her soon-to-be husband James Kidgell. Shortly after Charles was married his first child, Frances, was baptised on 5 Jul 1835 in Nursling. In 1837 Charles and Sarah's first son Charles was christened in Millbrook - he probably died young as he doesn't appear with the family on the 1841 Census. In 1840 another son, William Charles, was born in Holborn, London. In the 1841 census the family of four were living in Crop Street, St. Martin in the Fields, London.

Four more sons were born to Sarah and Charles and baptised at All Saints Church, Poplar, George b. 1842, Henry b. 1844, Robert b. 1847 and Edward James b. 1849. In 1851 the family of eight were living at 2 Tavern Row, Bromley, with Charles working as a blacksmith and daughter Frances working as a servant.

One more daughter, Sarah Anne, was born and baptised at All Saints in 1855. In the 1861 census the family were living at 2 Watton's Court, Poplar, with Charles and son George working as labourers.

Charles Young died 29 Aug 1867 in Poplar Hospital, from "violent shock from injuries", perhaps related to his work as an edge tool maker. An inquest was held on 31 Aug 1867 by coroner for Middlesex John Humphreys. (Perhaps records of the inquest are available somewhere?). He was buried in Tower Hamlets Cemetery.
