Hi David,
The controversy lies in the fact that Young Hollister Shepherd was Born 21 Jun 1817 and Bapt 24 Aug 1817 in Chisledon son of Martha Shepherd Mantus maker. No Father is mentioned. Martha married Thomas Hollister on the 24 Apr 1819 in Chisledon.
Descendants of Young have treated their double barrelled name in a variety of ways some dropping the hollister others the Shepherd and others maintaining the the full name..
I believe Young to be Thomas's son born out of wed lock and made right sometime later. In any event the line goes back to William Hollister and Hannah Hales who married on the 4 Oct 1776 in Chisledon.
I believe it is possible to prove this by one of Youngs direct male descendants joining our Hollister DNA project as we have a unique Haplotype.
