Parentage of John Young

A Familysearch submission claims that the parents of John Young are Lawrence and Margaret Young of Spotsylvania County, Virginia, but this appears to be in error; others have his parents of Samuel Young and Janet 'Jane' Haynes, which appears to be more credible since Samuel Young is listed in several Augusta County records. More research may be needed.
