JOSEPH R. JOHNSON, farmer, P. O. Ogden,
was born May 24, 1852, in Clinton County, Ohio, near Gurneyville.
He is the son of Lewis and Rachel Johnson. He was
reared to manhood on a farm, receiving but an ordinary English
education. On Jan. 1, 1875, he married Miss Minerva J.
Bennett, daughter of Henry H. and Nancy Bennett.
They are the happy parents of two children—Irvin H. and
Mary Anna. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson are both of
them consistent members of the Friends’ Church. Mr.
Johnson, in his political views, is a stanch Republican.
He owns eighty-five acres of good land, located about one and
one-half miles west of Sligo Village. Mr. Johnson
is a young man of industrious habits, and we trust will ever be
a useful man to the community in which he resides.
