Youngs, L. S., was born in Coxsackie, Greene county, May 4, 1832. His father, William, came to Wayne county
in 1840, settled on the John Austin farm in the town of Arcadia, and was a large fruit producer. He died on the
old homestead in 1884 at the age of seventy six. L. S. Youngs was educated in the common schools, to which he had
added through life by reading and close observation. At the age of twentythree he married Emeline, daughter of
Jacob Vanderbilt, who was called out to defend Sodus Point in 1812, and they are the parents of two children, Mrs.
Stella E. Bradley and L. Armeda. In 1868 he bought part of the old Jacob Vanderbilt estate, which has been in the
family for ninety years. Our subject is one of the substantial men of his town, taking an active interest in educational
and religious matters.
