Dear List, I am seeking the father of John Johnson (b. 1780-90 VA NC or TN) and his older brother, William Johnson (b.same, @1777). I believe their father was from VA, fought in the Rev War, migrated to East TN, raised a large family of boys, lost his land through some title dispute, and "he and some of his family went to north AL where he shortly died of dropsey". The AL migration was @1820. They settled in Jackson, DeKalb & Morgan Co. Believe ?? Johnson and some of his boys had a grist mill in NE AL, grinding corn for themselves and the Indians. John lived "on Sand Mountain". The families of John and William (even though William died 15 Jan 1815 at Battle of New Orleans) migrated to MO in various family groups from 1840 to 1855. Any clue or helpful hint appreciated. I have collected a wealth of info on the families of John & William and have considerable info on their children & descendants. Thank You, Judy Johnson Erickson in TX
