!NOTE: 08-Jun-1880 Rock Creek, Wilkes, NC821,829 census gives indication of possible family for Jesse Franklin Johnson. 6 Johnson families live adjacent to each other - Smith Johnson (born abt 1817) and his wife Sarah M.; Joseph Johnson (born abt 1840) and his wife Dianah; Jesse F. Johnson (born about 1822) and his 2nd wife Emeline; Jesse F. Johnson’s son John L. Johnson (born about 1853) and his wife Mary; Joseph L. Johnson (born abt 1851) and his wife Mary J.; and Z. F. Johnson (born about 1852) and his wife Sarah J. My speculation is that Smith Johnson and Jesse F. Johnson might be brothers.
