My brick wall relates to one Charles JOHNSON who was married to a Margaret COOPER. He is supposed to be from Virginia and would have been born in the time span of 1750-1790. He was one of the early preachers in the Primitive Baptist Faith and migrated to Indiana in the 1808-1812 timeline and his son George H. JOHNSON, also a preacher of the faith, settled in the eastern part of Indiana and subsequently in Fountain Co., IN. My wall amounts to finding where in Virginia that Charles JOHNSON and his wife Margaret hail from and more on their parents and siblings.
