JOHNSON, TAYLOR -
I think that my great grandfather died in a fire accident in Carroll, Va. about 1889. He had been living in Surry Co. Mt. Airy, NC and was married to Tempy Taylor Johnson. They were the parents of my grandfather, Andrew K. Johnson. I would appreciate any leads or info. on Lewis A. Johnson. ... it is a real mystery. Surely, it would have been in the newspaper, but I don't which one. He was young and I guess a drunk...I don't know. Please if anyone has any leads, please contact me. Thanks so much.
