History of Kilfinan Parish Church.
A much altered medieval church, in a church yard which on the South and west falls steeply towards two small tributaries of the Kilfinan Burn. The 13th century church of St Finan in Cowal is first recorded between 1231 & 1241 in a series of grants and confirmations by Duncan son of Ferchar, and his nephew Laumon, ancestor of the Lamonts, who gave the church and all its rights to the Cluniac Monks of Paisley. The Kilfian stones from the 8th century are stored in the Lamont vault, one of which is transulated " This is the cross of Patrick MacNeilage". Duncan descends from the O'Neil family. The earliest documentation of this church is 11th century but might have been there since 8th century.

1633 saw the addition to the church of the Lamont North aisle, the work of Sir Coll Lamont, whose initals S/CL and the date 1633 are carved in the East and West cavetto shewputts of the crowstepped North Gable. The same date and initals are carved in relief within a cusped frame on the lintel of the West dorrway with D/BS for Sir Coll's wife Dame Barbara Semple. The vault itself incorporates late medevil work.

2000 with help from Historic Scotland and many others restoration work on the church exterior started. The aim is to restore the Lamont Aisle and use it as a visitor center. The stones dating from the 8th century to be restored and displayed in the old Lamont Vault. During the restoration work, evidence of a medevil door was found below thw middle window of the south side and a door lintel on the north wall of the main body of the church. In the Lamont Vault two small two small windows were uncovered dating to midevil times. One is behind the the stone steps leading up to the Lamont Aisle, the other is on the east wall behind the memorial plaque.

2003/4 work on the interior of the church uncovered the infill of the Lamont vault in 1633 and its sandstone pillars, a Georgian window arch and the south door. Medevil bones were uncovered under the floor boards, which were cleared from east of the church yard to make way for the present road in 1750-1759 while the church was being extensively rebuilt.

Obituary, 21 December 1926, Shelbyville Democrat, Shelbyville, IN

Harry Harlan Bassett, son of Mrs. Mattie Bassett, died at her home, 719 First street at 8 o'clock Monday night of tuberculosis, following an illness during the past five months. He was twenty-six years, four months and three days old and was widely known in Shelbyville where his death is mourned by many friends and close acquaintences. He was born August 9, 1900, the son of Morton and Mattie Bassett. His entire life had been spent in Shelbyville and his active career had been devoted to the vocation of a mechanic. For several years Mr. Bassett has been connected with Shelbyville garages and he was extensively known for his ability and knowledge of all kinds of mechanical equipment. The death of Mr. Bassett removes a young man of high qualities of character and ends a career that was due to go far in the annals of the city. Mr. Bassett is survived by the mother and one brother Edward Bassett, of this city. The funeral service will be conducted in the late home at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The Rev. Arvel Emmert, pastor of the church of the Nazarene, will officiate and burial will be in the Miller cemetery in Hendricks township. Platt & Murphy are the undertakers in charge of the arrangements.

HORRIBLY INJURED IN ACCIDENT TODAY
Harry Bassett, son of Mrs. Martha Bassett, 620 Montgomery street was horribly injured this morning at about 10:30 o'clock when the automobile in which he and three companions were riding crashed thru a barbed wire fence on the Columbus pike, about one and a half miles from this city. His entire left ear was torn off by the wire and an ugly gash, five inches long extending from his lip to beneath the chin, was also inflicted, the jaw bone geing left exposed. His flesh was torn on several parts of his body, his left arm being terribly cut. His companions were also injured but not serious. William Parr suffered cuts on his back and a young man, a Mr. Imley, suffered injuries to his arms. The accident occurred when the machine ran into fresh gravel, the steering wheel breaking and sending the machine into the fence. The car was badly damaged. Bassett was brought to this city where he was attended by Dr. Sam Kennedy. It will be some time before he will be able to be up and around and it is said he will be disfigured for life.

Dr. Hugh Hampton Young II, A life well lived

WESTON - A 38-year resident of Weston, Dr. Hugh Hampton Young II died peacefully at his home on Robin Road on Sunday, Oct. 29.

For nearly three decades, he served as a surgeon of urology at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). All the while he maintained a happy, loving home with his wife of 49 years, Joyce Lenz Young, and pursued a wide variety of activities that would exhaust most anyone else. He had recently turned 75.

Dr. Young was born in Baltimore, Md., where he attended The Calvert School and The Gilman School before continuing his education at Yale University, where he graduated in 1957 after serving three years in the Army. At Gilman he co-captained the 1950 city championship lacrosse team, and while at Yale he led the Ivy League in scoring as a midfielder.

Dr. Young carried his passion for lacrosse to his life in Massachusetts and joined it with his passion for helping people as he helped establish the Charlestown Lacrosse and Learning Center. The center conducts an education-oriented, multi-service program which views lacrosse, education and community service as vehicles for youth development (www.charlestownlacrosse.com). Dr. Young served on the Board of Directors since its inception in the late 1990s.

An avid outdoorsman, Dr. Young spent much time fly-fishing and skeet shooting. One of his favorite places was the Laurel Brook Club in Uxbridge, which serves as much as conservation land as shooting and fishing grounds. Dr. Young served a term as club president within the past decade. In addition, he enjoyed membership at The Country Club in Brookline.

Dr. Young was an enthusiastic member of the Association of Naval Aviation. He joined groups at reunions and air shows, and was adopted as the unofficial "flight surgeon" for the group.

In Weston, Dr. Young brought professionalism combined with humor to his role as the team doctor for his son's Weston High football squad, and he also contributed to Golden Ball Tavern events.

Dr. Young enjoyed familiar hobbies such as piano, tennis and running, but additionally seemed to always be learning an unexpected skill such as figure skating, race car driving and rollerblading. Recently, one of his favorite activities was learning French. Many friends refer to his energy as inspirational.

As a surgeon, that same energy was channeled to saving and improving the quality of many lives. He graduated from the University of Virginia Medical School in 1961. The decision to specialize in urology was an easy one as his grandfather, Dr. Hugh Hampton Young of Baltimore, is widely considered the father of modern urology and established the Brady Urological Institute at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

After residencies at UVA and UCLA, Dr. Young arrived at MGH in 1967. Throughout his career, he mentored many residents as a Harvard University assistant clinical professor of surgery. He was deeply involved in MGH's excellent transplant program. However, at the reception held for his retirement, Dr. Young's career was most heralded for his unwavering ability to listen and communicate effectively to his patients.
Dr. Young's three children particularly were fortunate to benefit from his teaching skills. Even his sometimes subtle lessons will continue to teach into future generations as stories about a life well lived are passed on. Those who knew Dr. Young are blessed with memories of great humor, generosity and bravery.

He is survived by his wife, three children, Hugh H. Young III and Mark Edward Young, both of Weston, and Martha Y. DoByns of Shapleigh, Maine, six grandchildren, a sister, Betsy Y. Fenhagen of Chapel Hill, N.C., and a brother, James of Ocean Pines, Md. He is predeceased by his brother, Colston Young.
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, Nov. 16 at 11 a.m. at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Weston. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the Hugh H. Young II Memorial Fund, Department of Urology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA 02114, or to a charity of your choice.

Mary Young Lamont's four sons changed their names. John, the oldest, took the name Sitlington, which was the name of a "burn" or small stream on their Scotland estates. The two middle sons took the names White and Green. It has been stated that the White son may have been named William. The youngest son, Andrew, took his mother's maiden name of Young for his new surname. It is assumed that all four boys were young children because if they had been teens or older, they would have been fighting with their father and not left behind with their mother.

What age were the boys when they went to Ireland?
The boys were not involved in the battle so they must have been less than 10 years old. So I am guessing that Andrew would have been born between 1645 & 1639. If his oldest brother would have been no more than 10 (born 1636) and spacing the birth a year apart, his oldest birth would be about 1639. If he was an infant the latest would be 1645. These would have been the range of their birth
John Sitlington Bet. 1636 – 1642
William White Bet. 1637 – 1643
Unkown Green Bet. 1638 – 1644
Andrew Young Bet. 1639 – 1645

What age was Mary?
I will speculate that John & Mary got married when she was 20 to 25 years old. No record has been found yet of this marriage. I will approximate her birth between 1611 to 1620

How does Mary connect to the Young’s of Auldbar?
I have seen this reference many times but have not been able to find any reference to it in the records of the Young’s of Auldbar.

How did Mary & the boys not only survived but flourished economically in a strange country as refugees?
Andrew & John had successful linen business and farms. Nobody was allowed to leave the siege with any belongings; the Campbell’s confiscated all possessions. Somehow they secured passage to Ireland? I suspect that Mary had some help from a relative when she arrived in Ireland?

Could the Young’s of Auldbar be the source of this support?
I have compiled the information below to try to find the answers. These Young’s were very wealthy, educated and well connected with the Royal family.

Sarah MacDonald is one of the more memorable women among our ancestors. She endured many hardships and tragedies that would have overwhelmed many strong individuals. Her father died before she was three years of age, and she and her mother suffered cruelly during the terrible times of the Highland Potato Famine on Tiree. They were either evicted from their home, or faced with this fate, prior embarking on a ship to Canada to start a new life. During the Atlantic crossing Sarah's mother died, succumbing to one or another of the diseases that stalked these emigrant ships. Sarah was taken in by friends or relatives of her mother, and went through the struggle with them to make an new home in the wilderness of Kincardine Township in Bruce County, Ontario.

Sarah's love of books and indeed all knowledge led her into a teaching position before her marriage to Donald Lamont about 1860. After the birth of several children she had an accident in childbirth that led to paralysis below the waist. This left her confined to her room for most of the time, which she put to good use in supplementing her children's education. It was said that her room was lined with bookshelves holding volumes on a variety of subjects, both in English and Gaelic. It was she that imparted a love of books to the Lamonts, along with a healthy respect for education. Two of her three sons went to college, and all her children benefited greatly from their mother's teaching. She is believed to have been responsible for the Lamonts' ability to better themselves, which was based on the sound foundation she established for the family.

THE LATE REV. A. LAMONT
Thrice Mayor of Durban
The Rev. Archibald Lamont died at the Sanatorium, Durban, on Nov 27, after an illness of two months. Born in Bute in 1864, he had held the Mayoralty of Durban for three years in succession, and at the time of his death he was member for Greyville in the Natal Provincial Council. He had relinquished the Christian ministry in 1928 after 40 years of service. At one stage of his life Mr. Lamont had received a transfusion of blood, voluntarily offered by a member of Durban Fire Brigade.

The deceased gentleman graduated at Glasgow University, taking his Master of Arts with honours and the degree of Bachelor of Divinity. He studied at the Free Church of Scotland Divinity Hall, and was one of the youngest of his year to be ordained for the ministry of his Church. After his ordination as a Presbyterian minister in 1889, Mr. Lamont was sent to Singapore, and during seven years in the Straits Settlement widely known as cleric, editor, educationist, and social reformer. While in the East he wrote “Bright Celestials,” a work which was the means of securing amendments to the law regarding the opium traffic and the protection of women and girls.

For health reasons Mr Lamont was compelled to leave the Straits Settlement in 1896, and after he worked in the ministry in Ayshsire, South Shields, Wembley, and Edinburgh. Following his wife’s death in 1910, and his elder son’s death in a tragic death in a railway smash at Hawes Junction in the same year, his health broke down completely, and he went to South Africa in 1912.

In South Africa Mr Lamont settled first at Tackastad, Cape Province, where he married Miss Beatrice M’Ewan. He was transferred to Queenstown for two years, and then called to Greysville, the railway industrial centre of Durban. Subsequently Mr Lamont formed a separate congregation called St Ninian’s, a charge which he relinquished in 1928, after forty years’ service in the Christian ministry.

Mr Lamont was Mayor of Durban in 1929, 1930 and 1931. In 1929 he contested the Umlazi seat in Parliament as a National Council Labour candidate, but was defeated by Mr Acutt, the South African party nominee. This year Mr Lamont returned to Natal Provincial Council as Home Rule party candidate for Greysville, deating four other candidates.

Besides “Bright Celestials” Mr Lamont published works included “The Heights of Hell,” S. Africa in Wars,” and “A Widow in China”. Both as a politician and a municipal worker, Mr Lamont, was much in the public eye. He took a special interest in the unemployed problem, with which as mayor he was brought very closely into contact. He leaves a widow and three sons, one of whom recently entered Glasgow University to study medicine.

The funeral took place on November 29. Prior to it a special meeting was held of the Durban Town Council, when a tribute was paid to Mr Lamont’s memory. The Caledonian Lodge of Freemasons held a service in the Masonic Temple, Smith Street, after which the remains were taken to the Crematorium, Stellawood. Mr Lamont was a past Master of the Caledonian Lodge and held the office of D.G. Chaplin of the District Grand Lodge of Natal, S.C.

William Young b. County Antrim and migrated to America at an early but unknown date, settled in Augusta Co., VA, later migrating to KY before 1777, when KY was still dangerous Indian territory and everyone lived in a fort or station, dying in 1818 in KY and was reportedly married three times. Only the first name of his third wife, Mary, is known at this time. William was a Revolutionary War soldier who may have served only in the forts/stations of the KY frontier. He is listed as a member of Capt. Boyle's Company, out of Logan's Fort, and stationed at forts along Dick's River in Lincoln Co. A Col. Young is later identified in a Draper interview with Mrs. Arnold as being at Craig's Station. In the Fall of 1783, all the inhabitants of Craig's Station went to Gilbert's Creek Station, including the William Young family. All remained at Gilbert's Creek Station except Capt. John Craig. William claimed two 400 acre land grants on Gilbert's Creek, one was denied, probably having had a valid claim by someone else. To get the grant he received, he had to have been in KY after January 1778 and before October 1779. There is a Chalkley court reference dated 1779, listing, among many others, both William Young and William Hughes, who would become William Young's son Thomas' father-in-law, as delinquent on their taxes because they have "gone to Kentucky." This delinquent tax list was for 1777 or 1778, making their trip to KY fall into the time frame in which son Thomas was born. He was probably born shortly after their arrival in KY, most likely at Logan's Fort.

The following record in Chalkley might apply to this William since one of William's sisters married a Henderson. Page 107.--21st November, 1772. David Henderson, son of Danl. Henderson, puts himself apprentice to William Young, blacksmith, to learn his art, trade or mystery for 4-1/2 years. Teste: Wm. Robertson, Wm. Anderson.

He was married 3 times. His last wife's name was Mary according to Sharon Jebavy. A Chalkley record dated 1779 that said both William Young and William Hughes (his father-in-law) were delinquent in their tithables because they had "...gone to KY." He moved to Lincoln Co., KY by 1777 where he lived the rest of his life. This part of Lincoln Co., KY later became Garrard Co., KY. William Young was at Logan's Fort. He was with Capt. Boyle's Company that was dispatched to forts along Dick's River in Lincoln Co., KY. Col. Young had also been at Craig's Station. In the Fall of 1783, everyone from Craig's Station left there and went to the Gilbert's Creek Station, including the William Young family. Almost everyone stayed at Gilbert's Creek. William got land grants in Lincoln Co., KY in 1783 that required him and verified that he had been in Kentucky from Jan. 1778 to Oct. 1779.

The following records from Chalkley might apply to him, but there appear to be several Williams in Augusta Co., VA.

Page 61.--21st August, 1754. Francis McCown's bond as guardian (chosen) to Edward Paris, orphan of Wm. Paris, with sureties William Young, Samuel Crawford.

Bond by William Young, of Cecil County, Province of Maryland, to James Hettly, of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, dated 29th April, 1756, assigned to James Young, 28th February, 1775.


William Young was one of the early settlers on upper Gilbert's Creek, having settled there in March 1779. There is reason to believe that William Ellis, partner of Lewis Craig, arranged for Young to assist in the construction of Craig's Station later that year in order that it might be ready for the arrival of the "Traveling Church."
On January 2, 1780, William Young and Nehemiah Poor both went to the land court being held in Harrodsburg to claim 400 acre preemptions near the site of Craig's Station. Poor had settled near there in 1776 and Young the following spring.
On March 27, 1781 William Young would arrange for Hubbard Taylor to survey both of these 400 acre tracts in his own name. He had purchased the rights to the Nehemiah Poor preemption.
In 1781 William Young was living at Craig's Station and along with David Cook, served as a hunter for the people at the station. In 1782 he was made a lieutenant in a militia company nearby and saw action in later Indian campaigns.
On December 21, 1784 William Young and his wife, Sarah, sold 200 acres of the grant to Nickson Chester for 200. The deed was witnessed by his old hunting companion, David Cook.
1787 Lincoln County, Virginia, (what became Kentucky) tax list, district of John Bryant. William Young . . . 13 horses . . . 15 head cattle . . . 1 stud horse.
Young did not obtain a grant for his 400 acres as William McKee was found to have an earlier claim on the land. He also had trouble over the title to the 400 acre grant he had obtained as an assignee of Poor. It was caveated by Christopher Clark who also had a survey and grant in that area. This time however, Young's grant was upheld by the court.
By the time of the 1787 tax list Young did not have a lot of land left but appeared to be doing fairly well. He was still living on Gilbert's Creek with several head of stock including a stud horse taxed at a rate of 1 pound 4 shillings. This was the highest tax I found on any horse in Lincoln County for that year so he must have been a valuable animal.
It is possible that William Young had a son who settled in Lancaster. Frances Young, daughter of William Buford, gave a deposition in Garrard County Court that stated she was living in Lancaster in the year 1810, after marrying William Young, and that A Young gave $50 towards the construction of the Republican Church although he was a nonprefessor of religion as were most of the other subscribers.
The last record of William Young I found was on March 9, 1821 when the heirs of William Young sold to William Price 75 acres on Gilbert's Creek, a part of the original Young grant.

Early depositins about Craig's Station: Joseph Falconer (or Faulkner), of Fayette county, in 1819 said that he came to Craig's Station in 1781 and that there were twenty families at Craig's that year. He said the hunters were, besides himeslf, Nixon Chester, Andrew Hampton, William Young and all those there except his father, who was too old.

NOTE CONCERNING "WILLIAM M YOUNG."
The original marriage consent for Samuel McQuerrey and Isabel Young shows only the names William McQuerrey and Sarah Young as parents giving consent. The name "William McQuerrey" was apparently read incorrectly into various transcribed lists of Lincoln County marriage bonds, licenses, and consents, as "Wm M Young." Accordingly, the middle initial "M" has been removed in this genealogy. See notes under Isabel Young.
