i have my grand fathers birth certificate from 1898. his name was william
arson johnson. he had his birth record transferred to refugio county texas in
the 40's.
on the certificate it lists his mother as being mary sidona howard and his
fathers name was francis marion johnson. i am only guessing at dates of birth
years for the parents going by their ages at the time of my grandfathers
birth. they are 1878 &1876 with mary sidona howard being older than her
husband francis marion johnson. My grandfather was 3rd. born out of like 10
children. I believe they both died there in deridder beauregard county.
