Was there any connection between Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston and the Albert Sidney Johnson of Selden- Johnsville area. I have not heard of it, but the Johnson boys my dad's age were mostly tall and very strong. The girl in the family was M.E. Johnson Stephens, mom of Willie Gail Stephens & his siblings. . There was once a Johnson Ranch practice arena between there and Duffau where some tried riding bulls on Sunday afternoon, 1930-40's. Charles A.
