General Notes from Searches on John W. Young
These items don't necessarily need to be included in the article, because they don't necessarily have anything to do with Young's activities in New York City and the East.
- Young asked Camilla Cobb to found the first Kindergarten in Salt Lake City, which began operation in 1874 in Brigham Young's schoolhouse.[1]
- Young married Luella Cobb, a stepdaughter of his father. [2]
- Young warned Apostles Brigham Young, Jr. and Moses Thatcher (then in Mexico City to negotiate for the establishment of Mormon colonies in northern Mexico) that he had been advised by a member of the Mexican Congress not to raise the question of polygamous marriages since "there was a very plain congressional law [in Mexico] on the subject." [3]
