Update on Johnson Families, July 2012

I've been busy, busy, busy today updating information on some of my Johnson families.  I've expanded the information on the families of  James Absalom Johnson Sr, Edward Johnson, Wilson "Babe" Johnson, Robert "Bob" Johnson and Susie Johnson.  To these family biographies I have added some scanned images of census records, marriage records and death records.  I've also listed the names of their children and their children's spouses.  Their biographies now look a little more detailed.  I will update them as I acquire more information.

It seems that time just flies as I'm so hard at work with digging up information, then scanning and posting.  The day has come and gone and I've accomplished nothing else in my house.  Oh well, there is always tomorrow... if I stay away from my computer, I might actually dust and clean the house a little!  

Update: Henry H. Johnson Family Photo Individuals Identified

Henry H. Johnson Family

On April 11th of this year I posted the above photo of the Henry H. Johnson family along with the biographical information that I have on him (click here to view original post).  I was unable to identify any of the individuals in the photo aside from the eldest, Henry H., seated on the front row, far right.  

I am happy to report that I received an email from a browser of my site, Gary Nelson, who identified those persons in the photo.  He identified them as:
Seated- Ann Johnson Forbes, Sarah Ann Johnson Luter, Amanda Johnson Nelson (his great grandmother), and of course, Henry H. Johnson (his great great grandfather)
Standing- Absalom Johnson, Robert Johnson (married a Holmes), Alex Johnson, and Emily Johnson Blackwell Crain

I wish to thank Gary Nelson for his assistance in helping to identify these individuals.  I also look forward to exchanging information with him and hopefully I will have more photos to share on this side of the family in the future.

Thanks, Gary!!!

Updates on Stogner Families, July 2012


I was placed "on call" tonight from work, meaning that the hospital requested me off unless the floor gets busy and they call me back in.  Aside from missing a night's pay, it's annoying to have to sit near the phone and wait to see if I'm going to be called in.  I would much rather just go in and work my full shift than to be on call.  However, when our patient census gets low, all nurses must take their turns at being called off, and it was my turn.  I have kept myself busy with updating information here on some of my kinfolks:

I have updated information on Ezell Stogner including some census information and listed the spouses of his children.  On John Pigott Stogner, I uploaded an image of his land record, images of census records, and company muster rolls.  On Thomas Jefferson Stogner, I uploaded images of census records and his Homestead certificate.  I added more information on Lewis Edward Stogner and photo galleries on Charles Laverne Stogner.  

Uploading images and updating information has taken a good chunk of my time tonight.  I'll soon head to bed to get a few hours sleep before I attend an early meeting this morning.  Goodnight for now....
