THE JOHNSONS OF SOUTH MUHLENBERG FAMILY TREE COMPILED--THE SECOND, THIRD AND FOURTH GENERATIONS COPIED FRO!<t THE

MU1-1LEUBERG COUNTY SENTINEL, JULY 29, 1910. • • • I • •

I shall here attempt to present a family tree of the Johnsons of southern Muhlen -berg. I shall give the names of all Johnsons of the second and third generations 2.~d many of those belonging to the fourth. In many cases the fifth and sixth generations

·exist, but they are not referred to here. • My list of the fourth generation is far from complete. It is very proba~le that

a number of mistakes occur throughout this record. I will be glad to have any one · call my attention to any error or ommissions. I will also appreciate receiving a memorandum of the b~rth or death of any individual here named.

Practically, a~l the Johnsons -of southern Muhlenberg trace their ancestry to Jacob Johnson er to Wm. Johnson. Jacob Johnson came to Muhlenberg about the year 1810, with his father Josiah Johnson. Josiah died about 18J1 and Jacob died in 1845. The offspring of this Jacob Johnson are here recorded under the head of Jacob Jahr.son•

About twenty five years after Jacob loca,:;ed in the county, his cousin, William Johnso:i., settled in !1h:hlenberg among his kinsr;ien. The offsprings of this William Johnson are recorded under the he~d of William Johnson.

JACOB JOHNSON - Jacob Johnson, the forefather of this division of ·Johnsons, was the father of six sons: I Alfred Johnson; II. John or "Jack" Johnson; III. Jacob Johnson; IV. Bert Johnson; V. Hines Johnson; VI. James Johnson; I. ALFRED JOHNSON was bor-n in 1811, died Oct. 5, 1896. He married \·linnie \·!right, who died _Juyy 4 1890. They were the parents of .ten children: 1. Harvey Hohnson married Emeiine Dukes. Their children live in Todd Co. 2. John Johnson married Mrs. Ter.,p J. Allen. They were the parents of six children. Winnie, died in youth; Florence, married W.
