The family of Cave Johnson who lived in Montgomery County had moved to Tennessee before 1800, so this doesn't fit. Elaine Oakes >>Did this family find an Indian baby in a cave in NC in 1810 and name him Loyd and bring hing him home to raise.???

Thank you so very much, Elaine. I did not realize it was such an interesting family. I really appreciate all the information.

The first household was Elizabeth Johnson's mother. The three sons shown were all of Cave Johnson's children. Elizabeth had a son and two daughters from her first marriage. Her son, Isaac Dortch Brunson, was my grandfather's father. I am also including some biographical information. Additional thought. I have seen references to a Cave Johnson of Kentucky, probably a little older than this one.

His paternal grandfather, Hon. Cave Johnson, was born on the ancestral homestead some three miles east of Springfield, Robertson county, on the 11th of January, 1793. His birth occurred about three years prior to the admission of this state into the Union. His parents were among the very early settlers of this state and like the majority of them came from North Carolina, of which Tennesse was originally a part. Hon. Cave Johnson, who became one of the most distinguished figures in the history of this state, received a liberal education. In 1807, after completing his course at the academy situated about three miles east of Nashville, he entered Mount Pleasant Academy on Station Camp creek, Sumner county, and there he was prepared for college. Subsequently he enrolled in Cumberland College and 1812 took up the study of law under the preceptorship of William W. Cook, one of the prominent members of the bar of the state in the early days. The following year he joined his father, Brigadier General Thomas Johnson, as deputy brigade quartermaster in a command that was prominent in the War of 1812. After participating in the campaign of 1813 and 1814, principally against belligerent Indians who were finally subdued, he returned home and resumed the study of law. Before the close of the same year he was admitted to the bar and soon gained distinctive precedence in his profession. In 1817 the legislature of the state elected him to the important office of attorney-general of Tennessee and while active in that office he made an admirable record and came prominently before the people as a man of great resourcefulness and high intellectuality. He well merited the confidence and esteem that was accorded him and in 1828 he was elected a representative in congress. He was reelected in 1832 and again in 1835 but was defeated in 1837, owing to purely political exigencies. He then resumed the practice of law in Clarksville and he continued to practice until 1839, when public favor again made him representative in congress and he served in that capacity without interruption until 1845, when President Polk called him to the executive cabinet as postmaster general of the United States. In that office, as in all other public service, he showed remarkable facility in handling interests and affairs of the highest importance. In 1854, some six years after his retirement from the office of postmaster general, Mr. Johnson was elected president of the Bank of Tennessee and retained that position for a number of years prior to his demise, which occurred at Clarksville, on the 23d of November, 1866. Mr. Johnson had married Mrs. Elizabeth Brunson, a daughter of Isaac and Martha (Norfleet) Dortch, pioneers of Tennessee. Of th eir three sons James Hickman Johnson was the eldest and he became the father of Colonel Boyd Johnson, whose name introduces this review. The second son was Thomas Dixon Johnson, M.D., who served for many years as surgeon in the Egyptian army, with the rank of a major. After a distinguished career in the Orient, where he recieved from the Khedive of Egypt the decoration of the order of Medjeddie, he returned to Clarksville. Polk Grundy Johnson, the youngest member of the family, served with distinction as an officer in the Confederate army. He was a lawyer by profession and for a number of years was active as clerk and master of Montgomery county, this state.

Hey! Where were you 25 years ago when I started my research!!!!!
Dear List Members, Here is an excerpt from Jill Hastings-Johnson's reply to my e-mail with questions about the archives. Hope this helps answer some of your questions. Frances We will be moving again - not quite sure when, right now it looks like June or July, but that's subject to change and how the renovations proceed. Right now they're on schedule. The other four offices will move possibly in May or early June, then we'll move last. The new facility will be so nice, after all the places we have 'lived.' However, it's an on-going effort to keep up with what needs to be ordered, when it should be ordered, any changes, etc. In the meantime, we are still cleaning up and sorting from the move in August. Some of our main projects - court records, indexing, veterans' records - etc. have been put on hold until we move back to Veterans' Plaza. Our hours are still 9am to 12pm; 1pm to 4pm, Mon thru Fri. We are temporarily located at 2215 Madison Street, Clarksville in the Clarksville Gas & Water building. Access is on the side nearest the Sonic Drive-in. We cannot receive mail at this address. Our mailing address is still P. O. Box 323, Clarksville, 37041-0323. We can be reached by phone 931.553.5159 or fax 931.553.5158. The e-mail address is mcarchives@montgomerycountytn.org. The old e-mail address mcarchives@usit.net is no longer valid. E-mail requests can be made but no research will be performed until the research fee is received. Following the research, we will notify the patron by e-mail what the copy and postage charges will be. Once that is received, the work goes in the mail to the patron. This comes under 'once burnt, twice shy'. Actually it's much easier for us to do correspondence by e-mail, because the records can be checked, the patron notified, and the records mailed, all in a much shorter period of time.
Thank you so much for that information. I will contact the library on Monday.

Hi, Elaine, Thanks for writing - maybe you can help me take a short cut. To answer your question - I am not sure about the relationship. It is probably not a direct relationship - but I would like to finally get the answer to a "family legend". My gr grandfather was Robert Allen Duke, b 3/20/1841 Dickson County. His first marriage (Dickson Co, 10/13/1859) was to Martha Ann Johnson (b 6/30/1840 d 9/11/1863). They had a son Robert Allen Duke, Jr. Family legend has it that Robert and Martha Ann were second cousins. I know that Martha Ann's parents were William Johnson b 4/29/1812 d 6/23/1839 and Susan V Richardson b 9/20/1820 d 6/11/1871. They are all buried in the Johnson Family Cemetery in Cheatham County. Also buried in the cemetery is Barbara (Barbary) Rape b ca 1772 SC, died 9/8/1865 Dickson Co. She is in the 1860 census of Dickson County in the William Johnson Household. She is his mother. She was born Barbary JOHNSTON. She married Johnathon JOHNSON (I do not have where or when but their first child was born 1806). The widow Barbara (Barbary) JOHNSON married Gustavus RAPE August 30, 1816 in Davidson County. (Are you still with me?) Robert's grandparents were Robert Luke Duke who married Charlotte Green Duke (yep, Duke married Duke). Charlotte Green Duke was the daughter of John Duke and Charlotte Green. John Duke and Charlotte had ten children. It is "believed" that one of John & Charlotte Duke's daughters married "Fontaine Johnson, son of Cave Johnson". I have been able to account for all of their children except for one daughter. Speculation is that Fontaine Johnson is the father of William Johson b 1812 and the father of Martha Ann Johnson - if so this could make them second cousins. I have been unable to find a Fontaine Johnson who would be about the right age. I know by now your eyes must be glazing over from this complicated 'mess'. Question: Did Cave Johnson have a son Fontaine? If so do you know who he married?

I am searching for information on my g-grandfather and g-grandmother and their family. His name was H.E. (Henry? Elmer?) Weaver and her name was Jane Baggett. I think they were married in AL. or TN. in the 1870's. They had one son in AL. in 1877, William able Weaver, and another son in TN. in 1878, Charles W. Weaver. They may have migrated to TX. after Charle's birth. However, I have no evidence that they ever left the AL. TN. area. However, their sons both turned up in TX. in the 1890's. Charles married in TX. in 1898. Charles was born in TN. on April 26, 1878. William Married in TX. and was found in the 1920 U.S. census in Dallas Co. Dallas TX. Can anyone help me with this search. I am against a brick wall! Don dhweav@gbronline.com
