Surnames: Johnson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AEC.2ACE/612.1 Message Board Post: I am also researching a Johnson family. When I have mine beginning they are in Belmont County, OH. But many families in Belmont County originally came from across the Ohio River in Marshall County. I have a Wilbur Johnson ( he is as far back as I have gotten) he was b. 1892 d. 1967. He married a Lora Hess. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this could be the same line! Please let me know! THANKS!!
