Searching for information regarding the family of Hiram Johnson and his wife Louisa R. (Albert) Johnson. Known children are Katherine Christine, Henry, Peter, Herman, and Christ(opher). It is believed that Hiram died 30 September 1910 in Jefferson Co., MO. His wife Louisa was born 13 May 1861 in Jefferson Co., MO, and died 4 April 1937 in Jefferson Co., MO. I am interested in names of parents for both Hiram and Louisa (Albert) Johnson, their marriage date and place, and where they are buried in Jefferson Co., MO. I am also interested in dates and places of birth and marriage for their children. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Ed Murray emurray@ninenet.com
Ed- There are no Alberts on the 1870 census in Jefferson County, but I think I found Louisa listed under Ahlvers. From the 1870 Federal Census of Jefferson County, Missouri, Central Township, Hillsboro Township, taken July 18, 1870, household #298: Ahlvers, Peter; age- 55, male, farmer, real estate- $700, personal property- $150, born- Prussia, parents foreign born Catherine; age- 55, female, keeps house, born- Prussia, parents foreign born Elizabeth; age- 17, female, no occupation, born- MO, par frgn brn John; age- 13, male, works on farm, born- MO, par frgn brn Louisa; age- 10, female, at home, brn- MO, par frgn brn I don't find anything on this family on the 1860 census in Jefferson County. I did find Hiram and Louisa in the 1880 census however: From the 1880 Federal Census of Jefferson County, Missouri, Joachim Township Crystal City, taken July 1, 1880, household #478: Johnson, Hiram; age- 38, male, head of household, married, farmer, brn- MO, parents brn- MO/MO Louisa; age- 19, wife, married, keeps house, brn- MO, parents brn- GER/ GER Henry; age- 3, son, brn- MO, par brn- MO/ MO Peter; age- 1, son, brn- MO, par brn- MO/ MO Next door seems to be what I think is Louisa's mother. In the transcribed version that I have, she is grouped with John Grear (age 45, school teacher) and his wife Amanda (age 40- keeps house), but she has a different household number. John and Amanda are household #479 and listed in household #480 is: Alford, Kate; age- 56, female, head of household, married, (disabled) brn- GER, par brn- GER/ GER Although she is listed as married, her husband Peter is not listed with her or anywhere on the census. I can't seem to locate Hiram Johnson on the 1870 census. I need to get to work, and will look more later. Rick Waggener "C.
