Шаблон:Short description

David Youngs was an American lumberman from Ahnapee, Wisconsin who spent one term as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly for the district consisting of Door and Kewaunee Counties. Although contemporary newspapers describe him as a Republican,[1] he was officially recorded as a Union Party member.[2] [3]

Private affairs

Youngs was born in Scotland; as of 1867 he was 39 years of age, and had been in Wisconsin for 30 years. He listed his profession as "lumberman".[4] In July 1867 Youngs was a signatory (with Thomas McDill and others) to a letter calling for a meeting in Madison in order to organize a Lumberman's Association of Wisconsin.[5]

Elective office

Youngs served a single one-year term in the Assembly, in a new district previously represented by Democrat Constant Martin (Kewaunee County) and Unionist Isaac Stephenson (Door County). He was assigned to the standing committees on internal improvements and on contingent expenditures.[6] He was defeated for re-election in late 1867 by Democrat Moses Kilgore.

Death

Youngs died on August 5, 1874, from erysipelas at his home in Ahnapee, Wisconsin.[7]
