    1. [JOHNSON] Roll Call: Henry Clay Johnson
    2. The McNabb's
    3. Surname: Johnson, Woodring, Moffet I am looking for information on Henry Clay Johnson. Henry Clay was born in PA on March 4, 1845, died Allentown, PA April 6, 1914. Henry married Amanda Elizabeth Woodring on November 17, 1867. Henry Clay Johnson served in the 7th Indiana Vol. Calv. during the CW. According to CW pension records Henry Clay Johnson was from Schuylkill County, PA. Henry and Amanda were married in Pottsville, PA and had four daughters: Name: Born: Died: Place: 1.. Mary E. Johnson June 06, 1872 ? ? 2.. Emma G. Johnson June 11, 1874 ? ? 3.. Lilie A. C. Johnson June 30, 1876 February 07, 1958 Allentown, PA 4.. Clarissa J. A. Johnson July 03, 1876 ? ? I have copies of the original records that list the birth dates for Lilie and Clarissa and the dates are accurate. I don't think that twins could be born three days apart? I have located a refrence in the 1850 census for Schuykill County, PA, (Union Township) that lists a Henry Johns(t)on. Henry was married to Hester ?. They had four children: Name: Born: Died: Place: 1.. Catherine Johns(t)on 1836 ? ? 2.. Sarah Johns(t)on 1840 ? ? 3.. Henry (Clay?) Johns(t)on (March 04,?) 1845 April 6, 1914 Allentown, PA 4.. James Johns(t)on (March 04,?) 1845 ? ? It is funny that James and Henry were born in the same year. Are they twins or cousins? This may relate back to the above question about Lilie and Clarissa. Are they twins or cousins? I have not been able find any listings in the 1850 census for Johnson only Johnston. I assume that this is a transcription error, as all of the handwriting on the page is the same. Can anyone confirm the above connections? Also, does anyone have any information on Henry Johnson, Sr. or Hester? Also Henry's Sr. parents or siblings? I have heard that Henry, Sr. may have come from Greene County, PA and may have been the son of Bailey John Johnson and Hanna Moffet. Bailey was supposedly a Rev. War vet and was originally from Fauquir Co., VA. I have recently found another Johnson with the middle initials AC (Ann Carter) from Lancaster Co, VA. Could Henry Clay Johnson's daughted Lilie A C Johnson be named after her great(?) grandmother? Lot of questions here. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Scott
