Biography

Banker of Milverton. He and his partner Robert Young of Taunton had failed by 1814, when Maria Geagan 'now or late of Trinidad' was singled out as a debtor. The polymath Thomas Young, who has an entry in the ODNB as 'physician and natural philosopher', was the son of Thomas Young banker of Milverton: the entry emphasises the strict Quaker values of his parents.
