Charles Richard YORK is the son; eleventh child, of Joab YORK and his wife Martha Lucinda YEARGIN from Randolph County, North Carolina. Charles was very close to his brother Cornelius Semore YORK, only three years younger. No doubt these two brothers decided they wanted to get off the farm and become entrepreneurial business associates in sales.
It is suggested both brothers had a plan to marry. Then move into the business center of Brazil, Clay County, Indiana just across the stale line from Illinois to startup a new business adventure together.
