Thomas B. Youngblood was born in Anderson Township, this county, June 13, 1827, one in a family of eleven children born to John W. and Anna (Musgrave) Youngblood, and grandson of Samuel and Jane Youngblood. His paternal grandfather was a soldier of the Revolutionary war. John W. Youngblood was a minister of the Methodist Episcopal faith, and one of the pioneers of Warrick County. He came to Indiana Territory about the year 1812, and settled in Anderson Township , this county, where he was married September 21, 1815 . He was one of the best men ever in the county. The subject of this sketch was raised a farmer, and when twenty years old married Rachel E. Hinman. He was constantly engaged in farming and stock-raising from that time until 1882, when he moved to Boonville, where he now resides, retired from active business pursuits. January 11, 1853, his wife died of quick consumption, leaving three sons: John E., James J. and Charles Pl. May 26, 1854, he was married to Mary A. Osborn, a native of Spencer County, this State, and three of the six children born to this marriage are now living, named Emma A. (Mrs. Jonah Barnett), Minerva (Mrs. James A. Bullock) and Flora A.
