Description

Alexander Young had a pretty young daughter, only 17.  This is a love story turned tragic, in a time when the circuit courts travelled to the people.  It is a love story of caring for an insane wife.  And a family who took in a child of ten when his mother died.  Orlen went to live with his grandfather, Jonathan Young, and his Uncle Claude Young and family, homesteaders in 1904 at Innisfee, Alberta.  Claude and David were brothers; David had married Marion Anna Gibbs, my great aunt, when she died in 1906.  Alexander Young who went to trial was the great great grandfather of Orlen.  As always when I write I have so many questions!  Was Orlen ever told these stories?  Would I find the trial an exciting social gathering and stand beneath the window to hear?  If I was the Governor would I pardon?
