Hi Marian, I have nothing on Jesse. We have a Leona M Johnson, b. 3-7-1888 to John Johnson and Penina Nelson. She died 11-29-1968. Leona married Louis Lee Pearson 9-21-1907. All the above were born in Grant County but the families came through Darke (OH) and Randolph (IN) Counties. That's as far back as we've got right now on the Johnson/Nelson line.

May I ask which one? One of my lines--and the main one from Randolph County--is Jesse Johnson, my mother's direct line. Are they the same Johnson family?
