Recently I posted about my Johnson family in Virginia. I have had no response to that post so I am going to give you all the information that I have in hopes that someone has a link. First reference to Jesse Johnson is 1850 Census of Isle of Wight County, VA. Jesse is listed as a laborer, age 22, living in the same household as the Thomas A. Heath family and along with several other unrelated 20-22 year olds. Margaret Cofer, his wife-to-be is living with her family, Thomas and Willie Cofer, also on the 1850 Census of Isle of Wight Co, VA. In 1860 Census, Isle of Wight County, VA - Jesse and Margaret are listed as husband and wife and have George W. Johnson (son) age 3 and Andrew Francis Johnson (son) age 10/12 (Andrew Francis is My great grandfather). Jesse is listed as a factory worker and there are several other people living in the household. One of these people is Mary F Heath, wife of Thomas Heath who Jesse was living with in 1850. Jesse is listed as Head of household. On the 1870 Census, for Jamestown Township, Guilford Co, NC, Jesse and Margaret are listed with five of their children. George - 12, Andrew - 11, Lensemmis(my spelling as the census is unreadable) - female age 8, Margaret - 3, and Virginia - 1. Margaret and Virginia are listed as being born in North Carolina and the other kids were born in Virginia. I assume they moved to NC around 1862 - 1867. Jesse is listed as head of household and as a machinist. On the 1880 Census, for Jamestown Township, Guilford County, NC - Jesse and Margaret are listed with George - 23, Andrew - 20, Luema - 17, Maggie - 12, Virginia - 10, Anna - 5, and Effa - 1. Jesse is a machinist. On the 1900 Census for Jamestown Township, Guilford Co, NC - Jesse and Margaret are listed with Anna - 25, and Ethel - 22. Jesse is listed as a Cotton Mill Machinist. Jesse and Margaret died in Guilford, NC I am looking for any information about parents of Jesse Johnson. I would be happy to find a sibling or anyone who can help me find out more about this family. I know Jesse was not dropped off by a spaceship. I have lots of information about My great grandfather, Andrew Francis Johnson but not a clue about Jesse. I am willing to share any information that I have with anyone who has a connection with this family in hopes that eventually we can find where they came from. Thanks, Linda
