Hi Lori, Where was the JOHNSON reunion? According my great aunt, Sarah JOHNSON, some of our JOHNSON's migrated to IA from east TN in the late 1800s...unfortunately, I do not have any names. My great aunt's husband is descended from the ROSS family of Greene Co., TN. According to a ROSS descendent I correspond with Samuel ROSS removed to IA around 1900 from Greene Co., TN. Here is the line as I know it...don't have any records to prove this...only memory of some relatives... Descendants of Solomon Ross 1 Solomon ROSS ...2 Jesse Helton ROSS b: 1811 d: 1878 ......+Nancy ARROWOOD ........3 John Harvey ROSS ...........+Melissa JOHNSON m: never married ........3 George Washington ROSS ........3 Samuel ROSS ........3 Fannie ROSS Malissa's family...this line is really confusing...not sure I have everyone in the right place...spent three days doing research in TN two weeks ago and then talked to some JOHNSON descendents at my ALDRIDGE reunion and it just created more questions...oh well...
