Ann Johnson

(29 Nov 1760 - Bef 1830)



Goochland Order Book 12, p.336
August Court 1773 Isham Johnson comes into court and undertakes the guardianship to the orphan children of James Johnson Jr, dec'd. Benjamin Johnson entered security for same.
[The Chancery Court case in 1779 identifies the wards of Isham as David, Nancy & Molly Johnson.]
This Ann has been placed by Haden researchers Irene Cook and Jack Thacker as the same as the Ann, daughter of James Johnson & Rachel Haden who was baptized in Goochland Co VA. IIt does seem that she could be the sister of Mary Johnson Price who is found in Logan Co KY. I have tentatively accepted this connection.

Ann was married second to James Slaughter, 8 Apr 1812, Logan Co.
