Summary

Description
English: James H. Young (1859-1921) came to Raleigh from Vance County following the Civil War, where he became actively involved in the Republican Party, and later Fusion politics in the 1890s. He was elected to the Raleigh Board of Aldermen in 1883, and was elected to the state House of Representatives in 1894 and 1896. Young owned and operated the Raleigh Gazette newspaper from 1893 to 1898. Republican Gov. Daniel Russell appointed him colonel of an African American volunteer regiment for the Spanish-American War in 1898, making him the first African American to hold the rank of colonel in the U.S. President William McKinley appointed Young deputy revenue collector for Raleigh in 1899, a post he held until 1913. Young died in 1921, and is buried in Raleigh’s Mt. Hope Cemetery.
