Amanda Young was married to William H. Van Valkenburg

My family history search has lead me to some great finds about Amanda Young, the wife of William H. Van Valkenburg, who was the son of Edward Van Valkenburg. Amanda Young was the daughter of Michael and Margaret Young. She married William Van Valkenburg and they had a son, Edward W. Van Valkenburg. After William died during the Battle of Gettysburg, Amanda married George S. Ferner. They lived in Tioga County, New York. I have discovered several census records for George and Amanda Ferner, and an annoucement in the Binghampton Press Newspaper about a bridal shower given by Mrs. George S. Ferner in July of 1910. George and Amanda Ferner had two children, Alice V. and Elias Ferner. Click here to see more info.
