Samuel Johnson apparently died about 1816/17 in Dickson County, TN. I'm trying to find out if they are my ancestors or not. My 3rd great grandfather was definitely a Duncan Johnson and my 2nd great grandfather was his son, Randolph, who was born in Tennessee in 1800. Thanks for any help. *************************************************************************** This is an automatically-generated notice.

Sue, I believe these Johnson's came from Bladen County NC. I think Samuels wife was Polly Freeman. I haven't done research on this Johnson line. I believe Samuel had a sister Nancy md to Hardy Vollentine, a brother James md to Rachel Plummer McMaster, a bro. Charles md to Polly Houston. I believe their parents were Wlm Johnson and Sally Bigford. Charles Johnson settled on Yellow Creek in Dickson Co around 1798, purchased property from John Dickson, witness---Henry Davis and Martha Houston. He bought another property in 1802 from John Dickson --witness--Hardy and Ben Volentine--Edward Dickson. He went to Bond IL with Nancy and Hardy Volentine. I don't know about Samuel, but Charles had a son Duncan born around 1803 and a son, James born around 1805. Kelma Haguewood is researching this line of Johnson's, hopefully she will get in touch with you. There is a large group of us researching the Johnson families of Dickson and Humphreys County. We are trying to get as many Johnson relatives as we can to take the DNA test--hoping to answer a few of our mysteries.
