Surnames: JOHNSON, GRIFFITH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xUB.2ACE/4268 Message Board Post: am trying to find a JOHNSON male, need his first name. I know he was deceased by 1860. By 1860 his widow Elizabeth [born around 1820] was living in Cherokee County. She had at least one son, Augustus F JOHNSON born 1847 who married Sophronia GRIFFITH in Cherokee County. They may have also had a son named William who sometimes used the initials W.G.W JOHNSON. W.G.W was born around 1823 in Wilkes Co. Elizabeth was born around 1820 in Wiles County. Augustus was also born in Wilkes County. Any help greatly appreciated.
