SUSANNA MATTHEWS YOUNG married about 1669

Susanna's parents, Walter and Mary Matthews, lived in Maine early in the l7th century as did her husband, Rowland Young III who was a fisherman like his dad.

Susanna and Rowland lived on Smuttynose, part of the Isle of Shoals about 6 miles off the coast of Maine and New Hampshire.  A priest who went to the islands about 100 years later told of the residents who were uncivilized and inbred.  Susanna and Rowland moved from the island to York, Maine about 1683.  Later, he was a deacon and selectman.

They had nine children including Mary who married Dependence Stover and who was one of my grandmas.

Rowland died in June 1721 but I haven't found when Susanna died.
