Russell H. Bready conducting the services at the South Boston Congregational church. Wayne Young was born in Hume, Allegany county, N.Y., April 7, 1832. His early years were spent in New York and on Aug. 5, 1856, he was married to Mary A. Severance, also of Allegany county. In the same month they came to Michigan, settling on the farm in South Boston where they have spent almost all of their married life. During the many years of his residence there Mr. Young has been an honored citizen and has become well known throughout Boston and adjoining townships. He served as township treasurer some years ago, although being of a quiet disposition he never cared to take a prominent part in political matters. In 1901 he and his wife came to live in the village, and one year ago they celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary at their pleasant home here. Last spring, they returned to their farm to spend a few months, and after a four months’ illness Mr. Young passed away at his old home. Besides his wife there are left two sons, Hugh S. of Lowell and Robert W. of South Boston, three granddaughters, two grandsons and one sister Mrs. Charlotte Winslow of Maumee, Ohio.
