About us

Goal change as time moves on....

Hope all is well with you and yours as we start a new year. 
 
My goal to update my book with all the new findings and information really got sidetracked last year by my trying to see how BIG Y 700 would be useful to us as a family.  I may update this document before I final printing if new information is found.
 
Our Youngbloods appeared in Wm Penn's Pennsylvania c1700 then migrating to VA, NC, GA and SC before the Revolutionary War.  DAR has documented these Youngbloods...some incorrectly.  I sent these incorrections years ago...but they don't seem to respond to me so well especially, I guess, since I told them they had problems. I know others have worked well with them and I have helped others get accepted by DAR...just not me...they don't believe my research...Ha...!  Took my family a while also.
 
Losing the 1790-1810 censuses for GA has made it much more difficult to prove all the GA Youngbloods who were Rev War Soldiers (who later moved to SC) as we have no estimated dobs for these men.  Maybe someday.  Also, these lost censuses have affected proving current day Youngbloods back before 1810 to the proper patriarch.  I will list all of these in my book update...with a couple of exceptions, I expect all of these to be PURPLE - a couple BLUE and maybe a couple GRAY... here's a few.
 
Nathan c1805 and brother Arthur sons of James and Jemima YB?  - expect PURPLE
John c1822 - expect PURPLE
Thomas c1799 - expect PURPLE
William c1822
Seaborn c1790 - expect PURPLE
Seaborn c1802 - Expect BLUE
Bennett c1790   - Tested PURPLE
Edmond YB (expect PURPLE) who married a Matilda YB(Matilda BLUE father YB)
Two Williamson YBs….1808 and 1815? (expect PURPLE/35)
Joseph Joel YB? (expect PURPLE/35)
Andrew J YBc1826’s father unproven
Infamous Mathew YB c1810  father unproven
Waddy B Youngblood father unproven
Asa YB c1795 father unproven
Johannes Jungblut 1733–1775 father unproven
 
I am not certain if Big Y 700 will help prove the Georgia Rev War veterans or not, but I would love to have another 10 or more of our members to step up to Big Y 700... 
I need all the help I can gather on these men above. We diligently must find direct male Youngblood surname new tests members of the above named Youngbloods.
 
This may allow to see additional relationships that are not so clear at this time.
 
I need some help.  As you may know, all of my original researchers from 2003 and before... are gone or inactive.  Ultimately, I need others to think of taking over or focusing on specific branches.
==============================================================================================================================================

Find ancestors.  Share Information about these ancestors.  Save time, $'s & Get the Job Done...!

We want this project to assist fellow genealogist and the curious Youngblood Researchers in focusing on groups of Youngbloods once we attain a critical mass of participants, their lineage and proof already available. This will help others to focus only on their related groups and thus save enormous time and expense.  As you may have seen, my dad and I spent countless hours trying to link to GREEN John Miles YB 1708.  We have no relation here clearly by YDNA.

Each researcher will have individual personal goals ... some of which are listed above..... We all can help.

I would personally like to see all of the 1790 US Youngblood lines defined by current YDNA tests. ( We have now done this - 4/2007).  Then move on to 1800 through 1830 when the major migrations out of SC began to occur.  1790 Done...

Without the censuses of 1790, 1800 and 1810 of Georgia, this state and this goal are nearly impossible.

An added bonus would be connecting up the Youngbloods who arrived here before 1700 with those who arrived after 1700 to ultimately connect to European ancestors.  It is now known this will not be easy as well.  We have a German citizen "Jungblut" that did not match any of our YDNA profiles. As of January 2020, this has evaded us. The one Eurpean YDNSA match apparently was adopted and could offer no information.

We now have a teaser that may indicate a link to Reuben/Joseph YB of the Asheville/Hooper's Creek area. If you have not seen the historical novel - "A Secret War" by Terrell Garren....It is a suspenseful novel about the life and horrors of the Civil War. (Great book - I recommend it). This teaser has been confirmed...Reuben/Joseph back to James YB c1740-92 BLUE 

Who are the Youngblods of Brazil?  We have now defined the Youngblood family of Brazil as our family.

If one's YDNA turns out to be PURPLE, there at least two books to find.  Delois K Youngblood's "Research and Remembrance..." who ties Samuel YB1754 to Peter Jr 1732 and Peter Sr 1695. YDNA appears to prove a link to Peter 1732...not completely certain to Peter 1695...but as yet not disproved.

The other book is Jacob Youngblood Revolutionary War Veteran.  His YDNA links him to Peter 1725-95.

NOTE: Dale Youngblood who wrote this book originally tied his line to John Miles YB Jr 1734.  After his YDNA matched Peter 1725, he has amended the book...so if you read the original, consider that as you analyze the names and  dates.  Dale was one of many whose research linked his family to John Miles YB c1708 incorrectly.

This is one of the MAJOR Goals is to clean up so much on the internet that has been copied and shared without validation  and peer review/scrutiny.

From his link to Jacob 1750 and on forward into KY and IN, this information is solid.  He also spent some research time in Germany that is most fascinating.  I hope to go there one day to find the graves he has found and a final link to our European Ancestors.  Major goal.

Other goals have emerged and will emerge.  I have assisted two Black Youngbloods and traced their ancestors to specific Youngblood plantations.  I would have like to researched more but was unable to get them to join the YDNA project. 

In May 2009, a Black Youngblood joined the project and matched the PURPLE line of YBs. A perfect match to our goals stated on line one above.  He is our family.
