Tom Wilson: In response to your query about Zopher Johnson's. Zopher Alexander Johnson was b. 1845 and died in 1887. He was the son of Christopher Cooper Johnson(b. 1821 Greene Co., TN; d. 27 Nov. 1862, Memphis, Tn). and (K)(C) atherine Kerbaugh. I do not have any record of Zopher Alexander marrying a Carney. But in Harrelson's "Hamilton Co. Marriages," p. 134 he has Zopher marrying Sarah Ann Boster 23 Feb. 1864 by minister Hosea Vise. The children of Zopher Alexander and Sarah Ann Boster were: Clarence Edger Johnson, b. 2 May 1875; Riley Alexander Johnson, b. July 1874; Rev. Albert Johnson, b. 24 April 1877; and Elmer Elsworth Johnson, b. 6 May 1882. To assist you on your line in case you don't already have it. Zopher Alexander was a son of Zopher Johnson, Jr. b. 15 Oct. 1790, Greenville, Greene Co., TN, and d. 6 Dec 1866, Macedonia, Hamilton Co., IL. Zopher, Jr. mar. Phebe Cooper who was b. 5 April 1790 in VA and d. 6 June 1862, Ham. Co., IL. Zopher, Jr. was a son of Rev. Soldier, Zopher Johnson, Sr., b. 1754, Delaware River, PA and d. 1839, Greene Co., TX and wife who may have been a Henderson(b. 13 Sept 1753, d. 22 May 1834, Greene Co., TN). Most researchers do not have this "gem" that I received from Stevie Hughes in 2002: Zopher Johnson, Sr. was a son of "Zopher Johnson The Elder." He is in the 1730 Tax List of Philadelphia Co., PA with a notation "Settled ten years." In 1782 he is in Frederick Co., VA. He d. in Greene Co., TN in 1809.
