of Wiley and Margaret (Craig) Johnson.  The father was also born in this

Subject was the second of a family of five children, of whom four are now

a half years.  He then came home and resided with his mother until 1847.
In that year he came to his present farm, where he built a tan-yard.  This

paid some attention to farming, and now owns about 500 acres.  Mr. Johnson
was married in January, 1849, to Miss Mary Vinson, a daughter of Ezekiel
and Mary (Wallace) Vinson, natives of South Carolina.  Mrs. Johnson was
born in this county and was the mother of seven children, of whom five

native of this county and the mother of one child.  Subject is a member
