Notes for William B. Johnson
His gravestone says W. B. Johnson, Nov 3, 1835 - May 21, 1919. I cannot find him in the Kentucky death records.

Some other people’s family trees record his name as Lemuel B. Johnson, but I cannot find any primary source records for that name. It may be a matter of confusing him with someone else. (There was a Lemuel Johnson in Carter Co., for example.)
Notes for Nancy J. Patton
Her gravestone, next to William’s, says Nancy J. Johnson, 27 Feb, 1841 - Dec 18, 1895.
