Yonge was the son of Walter Yonge of Colyton and his wife Jane Peryan, daughter of Sir John Peryan.〔William Betham, (''The Baronetage of England: or The History of the English baronets, Volume 2'' )〕 Yonge was a well established merchant and was knighted on 15 September 1625.〔(Knights of England )〕 In 1642 Yonge was elected Member of Parliament for Plymouth, joining his father (who was already MP for Honiton) in the House of Commons. In December 1648 he was one of the members excluded in Pride's Purge, but returned in the Parliaments of the Protectorate, sitting for Honiton in 1654 and Devon in 1656.〔(History of Parliament Online - Yonge, Sir John )〕 In 1660, he was again chosen MP for Honiton in the Convention Parliament.〔 After the Restoration, Yonge was created a baronet of Culliton on 26 September 1661. He died two years later at the age of 59. Yonge married Elizabeth Strode and had two sons and a daughter.
