I am searching information on the parents of my grandmother. I am looking for information on Joanna JOHNSON b Oct 7, 1871,d March 21, 1939, who married John Thomas TANNER b July 4, 1869, d Feb 5, 1913, and had at least six children, including Mabel TANNER SPRADLEY b. May 11, 1899 ,in Anniston, Calhoun Co, AL ; Winnie TANNER SEARCY, Ruth TANNER HOBBS; William TANNER, Hosea TANNER and Johnny TANNER. I am told by a great aunt that "some of the family came from NC" but I don't know who or where. They may have lived in Hokes Bluff AL at some time. Joanna may be a descendent of Hosea (b SC abt 1808) and Lousia (b GA abt 1818) JOHNSON, but this is not confirmed. Mabel TANNER married Clarence Victor SPRADLEY Oct 23, 1912 in Talladega CO, Al, and later moved to Tuscaloosa. My father was the son of Mabel and Clarence SPRADLEY and always said he was "part Creek Indian" but I was not concerned about details of this until it was too late to ask him. Is it possible that you have any information on this family?
