Robert Dixon Young (July 24, 1867 – June 12, 1962) was a leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Young was born in Kirkintilloch, Dunbartonshire, Scotland. In 1872 he immigrated to the United States with his parents, who as Latter-day Saints wanted to join with the body of the Church. They lived in Salt Lake City for about a year and then moved to Richfield, Utah. In 1891 Young was ordained a seventy by Francis M. Lyman. That same year he married Mary S. Parker. He served a mission for the LDS Church in Australia from 1901 to 1904. Young became president of the Sevier Stake, which was at that point coterminous with Sevier County, Utah, in 1910. In 1921 the stake was divided into three, and Young continued as president of the Sevier Stake which was reduced to having only Richfield and such neighboring towns as Glenwood and Venice. Young and his wife Mary were the parents of eight children. For several years Young was connected with the operations of the Otter Creek Reservoir Company. Young was released as president of the Sevier Stake in 1933 when he was called to served as president of the Manti Temple. He served in this position until 1943. Young served as president of the Salt Lake Temple from 1949 to 1953. ==Sources== *N. B. Lundwall. ''Temples of the Most High''.
