Sheila: Great hearing from you again. On p. 209 of my "Early Johnson's of Hamilton Co., IL" I have the following will of William Wilson Johnson, Sr.: Neff, "Abstracts of Wills, Hamilton Co., IL, 1821-1915," pp. 51-52. William W. Johnson of Braden Post Office. Probate Section B, Box 42, File 15, Date: 1 Jan. 1886, age 62. Wit.: James A. Russell, James D. Deen, John C. Deen. Date of death: 5 April 1887. Date filed: 11 April 1887. Contains: Real estate and personal property. Executors: sons- James W. Johnson, Charles D. Johnson, Thomas M. Johnson. Heirs and relationships: Wife, Julia Ann Johnson. Sons: James W. Johnson, Charles D. Johnson, Thomas M. Johnson, William W. Johnson. Dau.: Sarah A. Hughs, Nancy C. Culpepper, Julia Ann Johnson, Alice Johnson. I hope this helps you with what you wanted. If you do not already own a copy of my "Early Johnson's of Hamilton Co., IL" 600 page volume, I hope you will order one. They are $60.00(my actual cost for publishing) and can be ordered from Rev. James William Dupree, 804 Moore Drive, Americus, GA 31709. I have a request from you. In my records I do not have any information on children and other descendants of your Sarah Adeline Johnson Hughes. All I have stops with her. Could you please send me what you have on her family down to your own generation? If by snail mail, it is Rev. James William Dupree, 804 Moore Dr., Americus, GA 31709. Many thanks! Rev.
