Hi Tammy and All: Louella Johnson appears to be the daughter of Noah H. Johnson. He had two daughters: Malinda and Malissa. One of them whose middle name was Louella married Center Mack York. The other whose middle name was Louise married Pleasant Franklin. The problem seems to be that they both became known as Malissa. My impression, even though Center York's WWI registration gave her name as Malisa, is that Louella was actually Malinda. Please see the document below: Descendants of Noah H. Johnson First Generation 1. Noah H. Johnson was born in Jan 1843 in , , Tennessee. He died on 28 Feb 1930 in , Overton, Tennessee.

Malinda Louella Johnson "Louellar or Malisey" (Noah H.) was born in May 1875 in Hilham, Overton, Tennessee. She died in 1949 in , Fentress, Tennessee. She was buried in 1949 in Taylor Place Cemetery, , Fentress, Tennessee. First given name comes from husbands WW I draft registration. He said closest living relative was Malisa Loueller York. Fentress Co, TN Cemetery Book for Taylor Place Cemetery gave birthdate as 1870. Cemetery Records Fentress County, TN, pg. 344, says b. 6 Aug 1896. Name may be M. Louella Johnson. A Mrs. M.L. York was bondsman for Nanie Alma York when she md Tom Copeland 29 May 1933. Have seen her surname as Johnson and Hogue. Have heard that she is daughter of Milburn Hoge, but she does not show in 1880 census with his widow. Brenda -- BrenINVa@aol.com -- I have her name as "Louella Johnson". Why I have that maiden name is because in the Jennings Funeral Home record book (2/1973-12/1983), there is the death record for James Clura York (born 2/18/1899, died 6/15/1981) and his father is listed as Center York and his mother as LOUELLA JOHNSON. James Clura York's wife, Winnie Smith York provided this information (funeral was charged to her). Since James Clura York had a daughter named Melissa, his mother's name probably was Melissa Louella Johnson or Louella Melissa Johnson. I know some census records her name is shown as Louella M., more than likely her name was Melissa Louella, and she went by Louella. I don't know yet who her parents were, but I'll try to search for both Melissa and Louella Johnson's in the 1880 Census. By the way, James Clura York was first married to Dolly May Owens. Hazel Pearl York was first married to Bruce Peters, then Clyde Smithers, Junior Bruce York -- Louella Johnson more correctly seems to be Malinda Louella and her sister is Malissa Louise. However, the first names could be reversed, i.e. Malissa Louella and Malinda Louise. Confusing??? Malinda married Center McThomas York "Center Mack or C.M." son of William Mitchell York and Elizabeth Hogue on 20 Oct 1895 in , Fentress, Tennessee. Center was born on 25 Jan 1876 in Boatland, Fentress, Tennessee. He died on 5 Dec 1918 in Glenoby, Fentress, Tennessee. He was buried about 7 Dec 1918 in Bill's Creek Cemetery, Bill's Creek, Fentress, Tennessee. 1880 Fentress Co, TN census age 4 w/brother Samuel & mother Elizabeth.

Gene Conley Owens -- I took my grandmother York to John William's funeral 13 Mar 1961. He died in St. Louis, MO and he was brought back to be buried in the Taylor Cemetery in Jamestown, TN. The Freeman Funeral Home was in charge of the service. The reason I remember this so well is a Baptist preacher preached his funeral and at the end of the funeral service he made an alter call. First time I had ever seen that. I kept thinking, "What if two or three people answered his call to the alter and got down? What wold then happen to John William's body?" Would the ever get around to taking him to the cemetery to be buried? I asked Marion Freeman, owner of the funeral home, those questions and he said "good questions."
