Bill; How are you? Been awhile since I have written anything on here but wondered if you or anyone could possibly help me. I am great granddaughter of Sarah Adeline Johnson Hughes who is the dau of William Wilson Johnson. I am looking for a copy of the will for William Wilson Johnson. Does anyone have that? I would appreciate any help! thank you!
