Andrew H. Young, born in Pennsylvania in August 1836, worked as an apprentice lithographer in 1860. He lived in Southwest
Center City with his Irish-born father James, a laborer; mother Mary; and four younger Pennsylvania-born siblings. Young worked

Gas Works. By this time, he had married Jane (b. ca. 1845), started a family and settled at 1730 Barker i.e., Ludlow Street
in Center City (Ward 9). Shortly after 1900 he moved with his family to 5600 Woodland Avenue in West Philadelphia (Ward 40),
