Hi Robert; Yes, I am descended from the Coffee County Johnsons. My maternal grandparents were Alto and Mary Etta (Sawyer)Johnson. I have concentrated on my paternal side more in the last year but have bits and pieces on the Alabama roots that I will spend this summer putting together. I would be interested to see if and how we are related. Feel free to email me privately. sandra --- Robert Steed <[email protected]> wrote: > I see you have Johnson as a surname you are > researching. Are you Johnson's > from Coffee County?
