JOHNSON, Sarah J. - Mrs. Sarah J. Johnson was born in Monroe county, Kentucky Aug. 27, 1835. Moved with her parents to Christian county, Mo. in 1849. She became a christian in 1852. Moved with her parents to Grayson county, Texas in 1853; was married Dec. 25, 1853 to A.J. Johnson who departed this life June 28, 1902. Sister Johnson died Jan. 6, 1904 from heart trouble suffered only about 20 minutes. In a little over a year death has twice visited the home, taking the most beloved father and mother. But the bereaved ones have this consolation, that they will be united in glory. Sister Johnson is now free from all pain and sorrow. She leaves to mourn her loss, two sons and three daughters. J. Hopkins.
