How do you know that the father of William Young who married Patience was named William?
A Bryan/Bryant Young acquired land in Stafford Co., Virginia, on 22 May 1700. He was referred to in the deed as a planter "of Lancaster Co." (Tyler's Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine, Vol. 26, July, 1944, pg. 278.)
Bryan Young died about 1725/1726, leaving a widow Anne, who married John Peyton about 1726. Anne sold her dower interest in Bryant Young’s Overwharton Parish land to John Savage on 9th Mar 1727:
"Deed abstracts of Stafford County, Virginia, 1722-1728, 1755-1765 (Virginia county court records)," Ruth Sparacio; McLean VA: Antient Press 1987, pp427-430 : "....This indenture made 9th Mar 1727 between John Peyton and Anne his wife formerly widdow and relict of Bryan Young of Parish of Overworton and county Stafford deced of one part and John Savage of said Gent....Withnesseth that Bryan Young in his life time & at time of his decease was possest of a planation & 369 acres in fee simple lyeing and being upon Patomack Run and being near the Planation and lands whereon said Bryan Young lived unto the time of his decease in which Planation & 369 acres thereunto belonging to said Anne as her right of dower had & still hath full third part of the said Planation & lands during the natural life of said Anne. . . .
In 1735, William Young, the “eldest son” of Bryant Young, sold his own interest in his father’s land to John Savage, apparently the same John Savage to whom Ann Young Peyton had released her dower interest in 1727:
"Stafford County Deeds Liber AA, 1809-1813," Ruth and Sam Sparacio, Antient Press, McLean, VA, 1987, page 282-285: [Abstracted from a recitation contained in a later land transaction involving the Young/Savage land]" . . . on brink of Potoemack Run /North over a valley near Reedy Branch. This land was conveyed to John Trammel & Mary his wife, who on 22 May 1700 sold and assigned this land to BRYAN YOUNG which said BRYAN YOUNG dying intestate the same descended and came to WILLIAM YOUNG his Eldest Son, who by his Deeds of Lease and Release bearing date respectively the 8 & 9 day of March 1735 sold same to JOHN SAVAGE late of the County of Stafford, after whose death the same descended & came to ISAAC SAVAGE, his brother."
William Young and Patience Sinclair married in Overwharton Parish and named a son Bryan. All of their children had children and/or grandchildren named Bryan and the name recurred in the extended family for generations.
My working hypothosis at this point is that Bryan was the father of William Young who married Patience, but I am open other information.
