It has had to take many hours of labor to accumulate the material. As you know, the difficulty comes in when some of the material appears to be faulty. Robert Young was born in York, Maine in 1736, the son of Job Young and Patience King. Job in turn was the son of Job Young and Sarah (Austin) Preble, and grandson of Rowland Young and Joanna Knight. He migrated to Nova Scotia with his father and brother, Job, and his first wife, Mary Dill in 1860/61. They settled in the Annapolis Valley - an area that the British had cleared of Arcadians. He married second the widow, Jean (Jane) Johnson McGregor, circa 1769. There is little doubt that he was a sea captain - but not of a man-of-war. In Nova Scotia, I came across a claim that he made to the British government for a ship which was seized by the rebels. It was for 500 pounds, an amount which I assume is not large enough for a man-of-war. In the 1790’s he moved with his family to Upper Canada. His youngest son, Thomas, as you know, married Nancy Robison c. 1810. His youngest son, Robison , married 1. Hannah Jones, and 2. Sarah Ann Moss. Robison and Sarah are my grandparents.
Robison had one son by Hannah, and one son by Sarah. The latter, Tracy is my father. My mother is Ethel L. Mayne is descended from Scotch-Irish stock. In six weeks, I will be going to North Ireland to do some research. My purpose in writing to you is to see if you have any more information on the Scot-Irish origins of the Dogalls (Dougalls) and the Robisons. I have the references to County Tyrone, but that is it. Any info on more specific locations would be most appreciated. I do not have death dates for Thomas and Nancy. As I look at your photo of the gravestone, I am sure that it says 89 years that would make the 1737 date correct. How are you related to Robert?
Charlie Young." per email from Charlie Young, Aug 29 2011. circa 1790.1 He lived in 1792 at Lot 1, Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Captain Young's location is on the southeast side of Lot 1. The Captain has been a shipwright and carpenter, supervising the building of vessels. He is a Loyalist who originally had decided to emigrate to Nova Scotia, and upon hearing of Upper Canada being more fertile and game being abundant, has moved westward up the St. Lawrence to King's Town. Finally, following the westward lure of the Bay, and loading his belongings once again, he has located this far up the Townships, in Ameliasburgh. As an officer he is able to draw 2000 acres of land, most of it being on the edges of Pleasant Bay, and the remaining portion at Carrying Place itself. Captain Young has immediately built a fairly large log cabin, but it will not be his permanent dwelling. He has other more ambitious plans for his home, and business ventures as well. But now Governor Simcoe has advised his personal friend, Captain Young, that he should move to what will be his new capitol at Fort York where he sees a great future for that location in the Province. The Governor is trying to induce this ex-captain of the British Navy to locate permanently on a large acreage near the Fort, believing that Young, as a bright and promising settler, will assist with the development of the capitol's community. Much work needs to be done to develop York, as the Governor sets in motion his plans for this new centre of government. Young is entitled to twelve hundred acres as an officer. He has, however, already drawn this amount at the Carrying Place and in the Peninsula, ignoring the Governor's plea to draw land at York, as he prefers his little community of settlers on the Bay." from page 308 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1792 at Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "And so, the advice given by Governor Simcoe to his friend, Captain Robert Young of the Carrying Place, who is locating this same year of 1792 and now residing in his first temporary shelter, is that he should foresake the Carrying Place, and should remove himself further westward up to Fort York, as the new capitol will soon be called. Simcoe will have special tasks of construction in mind for Young, he being a most able military engineer. But Young, at present, will be inclined to remain at the Carrying Place." from page 307 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1792 at Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Joining Captain Robert Young and Asa Weller at the Carrying Place is Mr. Wilkins, who will become a man of prominence, building a good-sized house for the day.

Wellers Bay is named after this pioneer. Robert Young also came to this district in 1792 and settled on Lot 1 on the southeast side of the Indian Portage." The Tobey Book, page 13, Brighton Public Library, my PDF copy.7 He lived in 1792 at Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "This year will see the arrival of many more persons in the Upper Bay Kenty, among them people of education and military standing. Captain Robert Young, late of the British Navy, comes to the Carrying Place, to settle here, bringing his family, among them his son, James Young, who has been born during the family's stay at Annapolis, Nova Scotia. The Youngs will achieve prominence as a leading family at the Carrying Place. Captain Young is a close friend of Governor Simcoe, and has been influenced to venture westward into Upper Canada by him." from page 306 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in November 1792 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Late in 1792, Robert Young, ex-captain and engineer in the British Navy, arrived on the Carrying Place Portage from Nova Scotia leaving the Loyalist settlement of Annapolis to take up land. He was the second permanent settler, preceded by Asa Weller who had been living on the trail a couple of years. Cap’t Young was a personal friend of John Graves Simcoe, first Lieut. Gov. of U pper Canada, and as a Justice of the Peace he was entitled to a land gran t of 1200 acres in order to establish himself. Lieut. Gov. Simcoe encouraged his friend to take his land along Yonge Street in the present Toronto, an area for which a bright future was prophesied. But Young favoured the site at the Carrying Place and took part of his acreage there on the south side of the trail reaching west to the bay, establishing his family in a temporary log house across the road from the log quarters of his neighbour, Asa Weller. His remaining acres he took along Lake Ontario and Pleasant Bay." 7th town Ameliasburgh, pg. 63.8 He lived on 23 July 1793 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "That he resided in this Province on the 23rd day of July 1793, and has continued to reside in it ever since." from (Crown Land Petition C-2980 Vol. 549 Bundle Y 8 Pet 7, Library and Archives Canada.)5 He lived in 1794 at Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Two Schenectady boats have been bought by the Government and are being used for official mail service in a network reaching from Montreal to Niagara. The mail is brought up by Government batteau to King's Town, and is carried further west by one Schenectady boat which leaves every Monday during the season of navigation and proceeds to the Presqu'ile de Quinte, being the Carrying Place, where it is met by the other Schenectady boat rendezvousing from York. Despatches and passengers are interchanged over the Isthmus, passing over the trail by Asa Weller's and Captain Young's homes. It is not necessary to transfer the mail across the neck of land, as each boat returns to its own base." from page 328 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1795 at Ameliasburgh Twp., The Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "A petition this year has been endorsed by Captain Meyers, Caleb Gilbert, Alexander Chisholm, Squire John Bleecker and Captain Robert Young, representing the Upper Kentie District, recommending the building of a highway or passable route from Port Trent to a point near Ernestown (Bath) by a man named Jabez Davis, who is putting his name forth as builder. The petition will go unheeded for now, but this road will no doubt eventually be made. All these citizens have met and formulated the plan for the road, as they are strongly urging that this proposed and necessary route be built. Progress in this region will never be much furthered with no land travel as yet possible, and only the waterways available as highways." from page 341 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1795 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "After his arrival, Asa Weller has married the daughter of Colonel William Marsh, one of the early Sidney pioneers. The Carrying Place Overland Railway will be a very profitable venture in the next few years, as well as rendering an excellent service towards furthering transportation in the Province. As yet, neither the Youngs nor the Wellers have enlarged their living quarters, but plans to do so will soon be considered. An inn here would be an excellent opportunity for business in the future, with a constant stream of travelers passing this way. For carrying each craft across the narrow Isthmus, the Wellers charge 20 shillings Halifax currency, or $4.00." from page 341 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1796 at Murray Twp., Northumberland Co., Upper Canada; "The first white settler in Carrying Place is said to have been Asa Weller from Vermont. The next permanent settler is said to have been Robert Young, ex-captain in the British Navy. Robert Young and his family came from an area in Annapolic County, Nova Scotia. There are a number of unrelated Young families in Murray Township, so it's a case of Genealogists Beware! Both Asa Weller and Robert Young were buried in Carrying Place Cemetery." from History of South Murray Twp. by Margaret L. May, per Masonic Lodge archives, Dan Buchanan, August 1, 2018. He lived in 1796 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Lieut.-Col. Young was the oldest son of the late Lieut.-Col. Young James Young, M.P., who settled on the "Homestead" at the Carrying Place, in 1796." per Death Notice of Reuben Young.9 He "Robert Young was born in Boston, the son of Scottish parents. At the outbreak of the American revolution he was in command of a British man-of-war. Early biographers say that he settled in Nova Scotia after the war, his first wife having died leaving him with two children, Joseph and Mary. However, since his first child by his second wife was born in Nova Scotia in 1773, it would appear that he moved there before and not after the Revolution. Young and his wife Jean produced a child nearly every other year until there were eight - suggesting, if nothing else, that he was not too far away for the duration of the war. By 1795, having heard of the fertile land and abundant game available in Upper Canada, he and his family decided to leave the Atlantic and the following year they settled at Carrying Place." from “Homesteads: Early buildings and families from Kingston to Toronto”, by Margaret McBurney and Mary Byers, 1979, pg. 46 in 1796 at Murray Twp., Carrying Place, Northumberland Co., Upper Canada. He lived on 11 July 1796 at Conc 1 Lot 2, Murray Twp., Northumberland Co., Upper Canada; "Petitions read on the 11th July, 1796. ... No. 63. Robert Young, Senior, praying for Lot No. 4. in the Township of Murray.

ITS Date: Apr 6 1797. (Ontario Land Registry Records, Prince Edward Co., Ameliasburgh Twp., Book 007, pg 177 of 254, OnLand.ca.)11 He lived in 1798 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "At this time, now, an accompanying petition is circulated and submitted by the patrons of Meyers' Mills to the authorities. It is signed by forty-five residents of the neighbouring townships, among them the following men of considerable respectability: David McGregor Rogers, the member of the Legislative Assembly (of the famed Rogers family), Elisha Beman (the ancestor of prominent orchard growers of the 19th. Century in Durham County), Owen P. Roblin (of Roblin's Mills, Prince Edward County), Asa Weller (owner of the Portage Railway of Carrying Place), and Captain Robert Young (prominent naval engineer, Carrying Place).
Their petition is in reality a demand for a satisfaction to all their needs, and they state: "That your Honours petitioners being customers to Captn John W. Meyers (Mills) which are erected on Lot number five in the first concession of Thurlow and the said Captain W. Meyers having been at a considerable expense of improving and fencing a pasture on Lot number four near the Landing (of the village) for the purpose of keeping a Team (for our convenience) to transport our Grain and flour to and from his Mills, and as said Lot number 4 is a Reserve we pray it may be confirmed (for our benefit) to the said Captain Myers either by Grant or Lease as your Honour in your Judgment may think fit."

(per BIO of Asa Danaforth) on 18 December 1800 at The Danforth Road, Port Trent, Northumberland Co., Upper Canada.12 He lived in 1802 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Newcomers are ever yet arriving. The Vandervoort family have emigrated from Albany as late Loyalists into the Bay Kentie area, and this year have made their landfall near White's Creek, a small river nearly midway between Port Trent and Thurlow. More numerous are the leading families swelling the settlement at the Carrying Place. John Murphy and Robert Wilkins are now residing there. Mr. Wilkins will later distinguish himself as a Parliamentary member and a Colonel in the Militia. Stephen Young, half-brother to Asa Weller, has arrived to join his family at the Carrying Place, and is immediately invited to join his brother in the profitable business of the Overland Railway Portage." from page 378 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived on 17 May 1802 at Lot 2, South East Carrying Place, Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; Land Registry Records (Patent) show that Robert Young obtained the Patent from the Crown for all 100 acres of lot 2, Carrying Place Lots, Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co.

Note: These pages are very much black smudges so it is hard to make out dates. Have to look at the list and see it in context. Guessing some cases. (Dan Buchanan, Nov 10 2024)
Note: This is where Robert Young would build the house that still exists on the south side of the Carrying Place (Portage Road) and a little west of the Weller House which was on the north side at the north-east corner of the intersection of Portage Road and what is today County Road 64. Robert Young would also own Lot 1, but that was more to the south-west on the shore of Wellers Bay. (Dan Buchanan, Nov 10 2024.)11 He lived in 1804 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "The Young family have now been resident at Carrying Place for a number of years. It has been recently the desire of Captain Young to commence building a more permanent and gracious residence than the log house in which they have dwelt thus far. Captain Young has formulated some plans for a fine house which will be spacious, solid and stylish. The ground plot is selected on his farm, being that which faces north to the Carrying Place trail, and is within sight of the waters of Weller's Bay on the westerly outer lake side of the Isthmus. Diagonally opposite him stands the Weller Inn, still a log structure, but no doubt due to be improved as the Weller business enlarges. The basement cavity this year will be dug by Young's slaves, in preparation for the erection of the cellar walls." from page 385 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived on 22 March 1804 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "James Young, son of Captain Robert Young, has wed Catherine Weller in this year of 1804, having been married by Colonel1" (Squire) John R. Bleecker of Port Trent and the ceremony witnessed by Colonel Wilkins. Theirs is a notable wedding and has bonded together again two of the leading families of the Bay." from page 384 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He "About 1805, Cap’t Robert Young, close to 70 years of age, along with his son, James, who had married Asa Weller’s daughter, Catherine, in 1804, considered building their permanent house. From time to time they had reason to entertain members of the militia, and other prominent passers-by. Then, too, Cap’t Young had been made a justice of the peace, was performing marriages, and needing appropriate facilities. No longer was the log house adequate for the expanding family and its requirements.
Plans were made for a spacious home of frame, within sight of the bay. The space for its cellar was excavated by Young’s own slaves. Over the next three to four years the house gradually took shape. Its kitchen was located in the cellar, Dutch-style, its large fireplace having a swinging crane, and on one side a bake oven. A pine floor and a flagstone were in an addition attached to the west end of the house, and reached only by way of the cellar kitchen or an outside door. On the main floor there were two more fireplaces having handsome mantels. For his parlour ceiling Mr. Young chose an extraordinary moulding done in plaster. A Dutch-style verandah ran the length of the main house with an enclosed gable-porch in the centre at the second storey level, from which one could view the activities on the bay and up and down the Portage road. The house was finished in 1808." 7th Town Ameliasburgh", pg. 63 & 64. in 1805 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada.8 He lived in 1807 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "Slavery of the black servants is still of a common occurrence amongst the more well-off Loyalists. Abraham Cronk possesses a slave whom he has bought from the Widow Simpson, a female for $300.00. After a period, she will return to the Simpson household, where she will remain in bondage up to the time of her death. The female has a daughter, who is growing up to be regarded by her master as an unusually "smart girl". Nicholas Lazier of Sophiasburg possesses slaves in his household, one, named "Sal", being noted for her fervent attachment to the awakening Methodism. Mr. Pryne, who lives not far from the Laziers, also has slaves numbering two negroes. Colonel Thompson and Major Van Alstine also have some, numbering quite a few, as has Captain Robert Young of the Carrying Place. Lieutenant McGinness of Amherst Island likewise is a slave owner, as is Captain Trumpour of Adolphustown, being the owner of two. Mr. Leavens of Meyers' Creek has bought a female slave from Asa Wallbridge for $100.00. A son of hers will be purchased by Captain McIntosh, to work in his household. It is a common practice to buy or sell one's slaves as they are needed or no longer needed. from page 388 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived in 1807 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Carrying Place, Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "The houses being built by the Weller and Young families at the Carrying Place are rising to pretentious proportions this year. A goodly number of workmen have been employed, and the activity bodes more prosperous days for the area. Both edifices are now complete from without, the finishing of woodwork and plastering but yet remaining. Bricks come steadily over by scow across the water from the Sidney brickworks, and rumble by ox-cart over the Portage Trail westward to the site of the erection. Weller's team meets the laden scow and they are transported by leather apron to the cart. Captain Robert Young has designed his house to accommodate the quarters for his servants in a unique way, by adding, in his plans, an extension on to the west side, which is only able to be reached by the basement passage that leads from the sunken Dutch kitchen and bakeoven below, as well as an outer exit door." from page 395 of "Hans Waltimeyer" by Jane Bennett Goddard, UE, 1980.6 He lived on 25 February 1807 at Ameliasburgh Twp., Prince Edward Co., Upper Canada; "The Petition of Robert Young, of the Township of Ameliasburgh, Humbly Sheweth That Your Petitioner resided in the British Colonies in America before the breaking out of the Rebellion, that he served at different times as a Pilot to His Majesty's Frigate the Ambuscade, and the Vulture sloop of war, and also as Commander of the Armed Cutter Annapolis, in which Cutter he was wounded and taken prisoner, that he was afterwards exchanged, and served on board the Dutchess of Gordon, armoured Transport - until the Treaty of Separation in the year 1783.

Lavish and kindly hospitality is to be extended to the passing officers and officials at the new Young homestead. The family holds a position of importance, and the house is becoming a rendez-vous for the British and local Militia commanders passing up and down with the regiments and detachments of troops. At one time this year, there have been as many as two thousand troops here encamped, two regiments having met in their journey each way, each proceeding in the opposite direction. The troops are bivouacked in tents all around the area, and the whole region has been alive with people. Captain Young does a mixture of farming and official business. He also combines several business enterprises. His sons are by now all Militia officers. One, James, will become a member of Parliament, having previously married Catherine Weller."
