Dear Beth,

I connect to this line through Sarah, d/o Alabeth Ball & Aaron Rosey Freeman. Their daughter, Sarah Freeman married Henry Wm. Wood. And Alabeth Wood, their daughter, married Aaron Francis Johnson. A. F. Johnson is younger brother to my GG GF, Thomas Marion Johnson. T. M. Johnon and 2nd wife, Julia, show in 1880 Douglas Co. census.

Would like to hear from you. Would you have any Johnson records??

Regards, Judy Johnson Erickson, TX

I am not connected to this family but in my early searches, I found the
grave of Alabeth Freeman in Mt. Ararat Cemetery in Douglas County. My
notation says "fieldstone, no carving, next to Aaron (Freeman). There are
many Freemans and Balls in this cemetery.
