Carolyn My ggg-grandfather Rufus Johnson married to Sarah ?, was on the 1870 census in Pontotoc County. It states that he was 70 years old and was from North Carolina. Sara was 57 and from Tenn. They were in the Tocapolla area. Was your Rudolphus in Pontotoc County?

They were previously in Jefferson Co., AL, Pickens Co., AL, and then on to Pontotoc. I believe he had a brother named Rodolphus or Rudolphus and one named George Cunningham Johnson. One of Randolph's sons - Joseph Abner (known as "Joab") Johnson, born in about 1837 in Jefferson Co., AL, was my great grandfather. He married Mary Undine Brown in July of 1858. Then they moved south to Neshoba Co., MS. Do we have a connection? Sue (Johnson) Howard ==== MSPONTOT Mailing List ==== Need to reach Colleen, the discussion coordinator?
