Se analizó “Familiar lessons in Botany with flora of Texas” de M.J. Young (1873) para establecer cuántas novedades nomenclaturales contiene. La parte de flora del libro, que fue escrita con la ayuda de S.B. Buckley, tomó prestadas casi todas sus descripciones, a menudo palabra por palabra, de floras anteriores. A pesar de la copia extensa, en esta flora Young describió dos nuevas especies y Buckley una. Young hizo seis nuevas combinaciones. Se discuten estos nueve nombres, así como otros ocho atribuidos incorrectamente a Young o mal aplicados, y se designan aquí siete lectotipos y cuatro neotipos. Se proporciona información sobre cuándo parece haberse completado el manuscrito “Familiar Lessons in Botany”, cuándo se publicó el libro y cómo se publicitó. Se comentan las fuentes bibliográficas y de herbario utilizadas por el autor. Además, se brindan detalles sobre el pequeño círculo de contactos y corresponsales botánicos de Young para brindar contexto a su contribución única a la flora de Texas.
