Descendants of Hugh Young (B Descendants of Hugh Young (b. abt. 1790, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland) In this record, persons are numbered consecutively. If they married and are known to have children, there is a plus sign (+) in front of their name, which indicates that additional information about them can be found in the next generation. I am solely responsible for all errors in this record. Corrections and additions are appreciated. Stephen W. Johnson 222 Parkman Ave. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 [email protected] September 13, 2013 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 First Generation 1. Hugh YOUNG was born (date unknown). According to the marriage record of Hugh's son, Hugh Young (who married Martha Wilson on February 8, 1850), from the First Garvagh Presbyterian Church, Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland (obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, N. Ireland, BT4869W), Hugh Young was a farmer. According to the 1831 Census of the heads of households in Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland, there were four heads of households named Hugh Young in Co. Londonderry in 1831. They lived in the following Parishes/Townlands: Ballyaghran, Ballemond Big, Ballyaghran, Kiltinny Upper, Desertoghill, Gortacloghan, Tamlaght O'Crilly, Drumgardner. It is difficult to determine which Hugh Young is the Hugh Young with which we are concerned here. Ballyaghran is located near Coleraine, not far from Spittle Hill where Hugh's son lived at the time of his marriage in 1850. Desertoghill is where Martha Wilson, Hugh's daughter-in-law lived in 1850 and Tamlaght O'Crilly is right next to Desertoghill. Hugh YOUNG had the following children: +2 i. Mary YOUNG, born 1814, Townland of Ballyagan, Parish of Desertoghill, Bar. of Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, Prov. of Ulster; married Hugh BOICE. +3 ii. Nancy YOUNG, died about 1854, Ireland. 4 iii. Margaret YOUNG was buried on December 6, 1872 in Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. She died in December, 1872. Margaret is thought to be the Maggie Young that is buried in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4, Section D in Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. 5 iv. John YOUNG was born (date unknown). +6 v. Hugh YOUNG, born May 12, 1826, Ireland; married Martha J. WILSON, February 8, 1850, Second Garvagh Presb. Ch., Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland; died September 10, 1885. Second Generation 2. Mary YOUNG was born in 1814 in Townland of Ballyagan, Parish of Desertoghill, Bar. of Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, Prov. of Ulster. The 1880 census in "Historic Pittsburgh, lists a James "(Wilson)" Gilmore,age 28, boarder, born in Ireland, as residing with Mary Boyce, whose occupation is HK (keeping house). According to Janet Houston Rhein, the letters of James Wilson Houston suggested that Mary was a Wilson, as James referred to Uncle Hugh Boice. Accordingly, she was initially listed as a Wilson, a sister of Isabella and Martha. HOWEVER, there was a Hugh Y. Boice who was an auctioneer in Pittsburgh, who may be a son of Hugh and Mary Boice. Also James Boice's middle initial is "Y" on the records on Central High School in Pittsburgh. It appears that the "Y" stands for Young and they were named after a grandfather, thereby making Mary a Young and not a Wilson. This is now seen as a likelihood, and this change has been made. Mary was a sister of Hugh Young, with whom she and here husband came to the United States. 2 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 Mary YOUNG and Hugh BOICE were married. Hugh BOICE was born in 1802 in Ireland. He died before 1880 at the age of 78 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. The William-Rathbone, ship manifest #4473, arriving Port of New York, May 14, 1850 from Liverpool lists Hugh Boyce's occupation as a carpenter, his age as 48 and Mary's age as 35. The children are Hugh, age 14; Matthew, age 8; James, age 7; Mary, age 5; and Mary Elizabeth, age 4. Also listed on the manifest is an Isabella Woodburn, servant, age 17. There are no other Woodburn's listed on the ship's manifest. She may have accompanied the Boyce's and helped with the children. There is, however, no record of her in the 1850 Census for the City of Pittsburgh. She is probably the daughter of John Woodburn, born May 2, 1788, married to Mary Witherow. The 1850 Census for the City of Pittsburgh lists a Hugh and Mary Boice (not Boyce as above in the ship's manifest) and their four children residing in the 7th Ward. Mary Elizabeth is not listed and presumably died shortly after their arrival in Pittsburgh. Hugh's occupation is listed as a laborer. Hugh and Martha Young are listed as residing with them. The 1860 Census, which has some minor differences in some of the ages from the earlier census, lists Hugh's occupation as a sexton (Oak Alley Reformed Presbyterian Church), Matthew is not listed and may have left home as he was at least 18 years of age or he may have died during this ten year period. There is a Martha Boice, age 17 and a Annie Boice, age 6, both born in Ireland, listed as residing with Hugh and Mary and their family. Their relationship to Hugh Boice is not shown. They are not daughters of Hugh and Mary. I suspect they are sisters (1) who emigrated with another family from Ireland or (2) one or both of their parents died after arrival in the United States. As the 1860 census information in "Historic Pittsburgh" was transcribed from the original records and is in a printed format, it may be that Nancy (five letters) was incorrectly entered as Annie. I have elected to record it as Nancy. Nancy Boice graduated from Central High School in 1871 and was listed a daughter of Hugh Boice. She is also listed as a daughter, Nanna, of Mary Boice in the 1880 Census. It states that she was born in Pennsylvania which differs from the 1860 census. I have elected to show both Martha Boice and Nancy (Annie) Boice as daughters (adopted) of Hugh and Mary Boice. I suspect that Martha may be the Nannie Boyce who was buried in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4 of Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania on August 12, 1870. There is, however, no gravesite marker for this person on lots 28 and 30. (Source-Janet Houston Rhein) "Recollections of good Hugh Boice come to every High School attendant who knew the kindly old janitor. He never showed any impatience and the boys all liked Hughey. His daughter Nancy, now dead, was of our class of 187I. His son, Rev. Jas. Y. Boice was one of the earlier students who left school to enter the army. Mr. Boice was also janitor of the Oak Alley Reformed Presbyterian Church. Rev. John Douglass - a building and congregation - long since gone as has pastor and Mr. Boice also from among us. We rehearsed our commencement pieces in this old church and had a final rehearsal in the Third Presbyterian Church on Sixth avenue. HUGH BOICE "The Old Janitor" The, bell is silent now; Old Hughey rings no more, I almost see him standing in the hall, The clapper holds he firm, His eyes are on the clock - He's just about to ring the well-known call. How plainly I can see him watching by the clock, with the bell in his hand, waiting for the exact second to ring it; 3 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 and then his hatchet in hand and a pocket full of nails for patching and mending the stairs as fast as we wore them out with our constant traveling over them. I seem to see him hammering quietly, so as not to disturb the recitations. Some one's Reminiscences in 1883 Annual." (Source - My High School Days, George Thorton Fleming, Press of Wm. G. Johnston, Pittsburgh, Pa., 1904) On October 19, 1854, John Huston, Hugh Boice and Hugh Young each purchased a 1/3 interest in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4, Section D in Mount Union Cemetery (later Union Dale Cemetery), Pittsburgh, from the Trustees of The First Associate Reformed Church. On October 29, 1874, Hugh Boice sold his 2/3 interest, having purchased earlier the 1/3 interest of Hugh Young, to James Wilson Houston. There are 10 individuals listed as buried in these lots and all have been associated specifically with the existing families, except Nannie Boyce, buried on August 12, 1870 and Maggie Young, buried on December 6, 1872. Hugh BOICE and Mary YOUNG had the following children: 7 i. Hugh BOICE was born in 1836 in Ireland. Hugh's occupation is listed as carpenter on 1860 Census in Pittsburgh. There is a Hugh Y. (Young?) Boyce listed as an auctioneer at 419 Smithfield St., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1890, although there is no confirmation that this is the same Hugh Boyce. 8 ii. Matthew BOICE was born in 1842 in Ireland. He died before 1860 at the age of 18 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. 9 iii. James Y. BOICE was born in 1843 in Ireland. James left Central High School, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1863 to enlist in the army in the Civil War. James' Service Record: Enlisted as a Private on 19 July 1864 Enlisted in company F. 193rd Infantry Regiment Pennsylvania on 19 July 1864 Promoted to Full Corporal on 07 October 1864 Mustered out on 09 November 1864 in Pittsburgh, Pa.

  • Martha Wilson I Have Become My Own Worst Fear
    535 W. 22nd Street, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10011 Tel: 212-647-1044 [email protected] www.ppowgallery.com Martha Wilson I have become my own worst fear September 9 – October 8, 2011 Opening Reception: Friday, September 9, 6-8pm is proud to present new work by Martha Wilson in her first solo exhibition since joining the gallery in May, 2011. The works in the exhibition are embedded in the ideas which have concerned the artist for four decades. A new work, I have become my own worst fear, consists of a photo/text image, to be shown with a videotape made by the artist in 1974. Works on view will consist of nine new photo/text works created since 2008, and two early photo/text works, Alchemy, from 1973 and My Authentic Self from 1974. New York Times critic Holland Cotter, in reviewing a 2008 exhibition of Martha Wilson’s early work, described her as one of “the half-dozen most important people for art in downtown Manhattan in the 1970s.” In Moira Roth’s introduction to the Martha Wilson Sourcebook: 40 Years of Reconsidering Performance, Feminism, Alternative Spaces, being published this fall by Independent Curators International, he adds: “Wilson is a wonderful artist, whose smart and witty 1970s photographic self-portraits in various ‘feminine’ guises— passive beauty, punk upstart—helped very early on (way before Cindy Sherman) to demonstrate that the gendered roles we play are largely invented for us. It's the artist's job to take charge of that invention so that we see it in action, which Wilson did in those amazing and still-under known pictures.” Martha Wilson is Founding Director of Franklin Furnace Archive, Inc., an alternative space she established in her TriBeCa storefront loft in lower Manhattan which, since its inception in 1976, has presented and preserved temporal art: artists’ books and other multiples produced internationally after 1960; temporary installations; and performance art.

  • Descendants of William Woodburn (B
    Descendants of William Woodburn (b. 1730, Ballintemple, parish of Errigal, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland) In this record, persons are numbered consecutively. If they married and are known to have children, there is a plus sign (+) in front of their name, which indicates that additional information about them can be found in the next generation. I am solely responsible for all errors in this record. Corrections and additions are appreciated. Stephen W. Johnson 222 Parkman Ave. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 [email protected] September 12, 2013 Descendants of William WOODBURN 12 September 2013 First Generation 1. WOODBURN was born (date unknown). The name Woodburn is apparently of Scottish origin. It may come from the Scottish term for a small stream--"burn"; hence, wooded burn or tree-lined stream. Woodburn, then, would have been the name given to people living in such an area. The main connection appears to be with the Ayrshire and Dumfries areas of Scotland. There, a George Woodburn was shot for being a Covenanter (Scottish Presbyterians in the 17th cen. who subscribed to various conservative covenants) in 1685. It was not unusual, however, for people from Scotland, in times of religious persecution, to flee to Ireland and England. Thus, for example, there are a number of Woodburns in Pennington Hall, Ulverston, Cumbria Co., England. There, a Robert Woodburne, in 1654, served as the attorney for George Fox, founder of ther Quakers, in acquiring land for the first Quaker cemetery. In Ireland, Carrickfergus Co. in Northern Ireland has an area and a police station bearing the Woodburn name. Despite these connections to England and Ireland, the original Scottish connection seems indisputable.
