I'm hoping a lot of newcomers received computers for Christmas and are searching for their Johnson family. I invite them to take a look at my Johnson line and see if there is a possible connection. My brick wall is Thomas Johnson, b abt 1805, Stokes Co, NC, married 1844 to Mary (Jane?) Holder b abt 1815 or 1820 (depending upon which census is correct). Only 1 child, Nathaniel, was listed in 1850 & 1860 Census. Who are the parents of Thomas and Mary? Decendants of Thomas are listed on my website: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~omeda/JOHNSON.htm Thanks Omeda
