Hello Glenda! I have Johnson/Johnston's in Little River Co from 1870 - 1940's. My Dad was born near Ashdown. I don't know of any direct relationship to your family....but I am always searching for Johnson/Johnston's who were there the same time as my gr grandfather Iredell Johnston, abt 1870. While most people he was living near in AL moved on to TX he moved to AR. I am assuming he had family nearby. Now I have to figure out who the family is! Iredell's name is mispelled in the 1870 census. He returned to AL with his second wife and died there abt 1876. His children and nephews lived in LRC. I italicized the names of the people who lived in LRC.

By 1860 the three boys were living in Alabama with various friends/relatives: Zera Gentry, W.R. and Sealy Thornton both in Russell Co., AL and David Hoffman in Macon Co., AL.
