Hi Betty, This is Bobby Richardson. Surprise- I'm on this list, too! I checked the "Pickens County, Alabama Cemetery Records 1983", and I don't find any listing for Gale Johnson or wife Rebecca. Nor do I find them in "Deaths, Marriages and Confederate Soldiers Pickens County Alabama" by Betty Junkin. I do find Gale Johnson and his family in "Early Settlers of Pickens County, Alabama" by Jim Johnson, Jr. listed from the 1850 census and also listed as having bought 40 acres of land from the Federal Land Bank on 2/15/1847. It's shown at T22 R14 S17. The map in the book shows that to be just 1 section east of Olney in the southern part of the county. Is that Gale Johnson an ancestor of the Gale Johnson born 14 SEP 1849 who was Essie Mae Parker's grandfather?
