Floyd m. Alice Gibson/Gipson. Alice death date about 1928
Alice had three sister. Susannah, who was married to my Uncle Sylvester Isaac (my Mother's half brother). Nancy, who was married to Johnny Hall (a double cousin of mine). Josephine who m Monroe Slone Jr.

Children of Floyd and Alice: Junior and James.
Floyd "Junior" Adams b 7/06/1920, James Arthur Adams b 4/28/1928
and d 12/22/1997

He was raise an Adams and died an Adams. Anna Celia, , Nancy, Samuel, Floyd, Emmaline, George Washington, Joda, Mattie, Gilbert, Dewey, Henry, Watson, Ellis,

David Adams m #1 Susie/Stacey Wells

Rosa Belle's Parents:
Hiram Isaac m Martha Elizabeth Johnson
Children: Rodah Delle b 4/23/1913 d 8/08/1913
Mattie b 12/20/1914 d 11/20/1999
Rosa Belle b 07/01/1917 d 09/30/1999

Hiram's parents were William W. "Billy" Isaacs and Jane "Jenny"
Hall, could be Virginia Jane Hall

Martha Elizabeth's Parents:
Elisha "Lish" Johnson b 1819 d ? Ky. m Eliza "Liza" Bates b abt 1837 daughter of John Wallace Bates Jr. and Elizabeth Hall. Children: Thomas b 1872, Martha Elizabeth b 5/09/1874, Sally b 1876 Margaret b 1878, Aim b after census of 1880, 1884

Elisha's parents: I am currently looking for his parents. Most have him listed as the son of David and Anna Johnson. But this I have research and is wrong. He was born about 1819. gives his age on the 1880 Floyd County census as 61. He is married to and living with my Eliza Bates Hall age 43 on the 1880 census, along with his son Elisha age 16, from his previous marriage,and Eliza's children by her first marriage: Henry age 19, Clerinda age 18, William age 14. Also on this census is the children they had together at that time Thomas age 8, Martha age 6 (my grandmother) Sally age 4, and Margaret age 1.
Elisha is found on the 1870 Floyd Co Ky census Listed as 52 at home # 1 with his wife Elizabeth 52, Rutha 17, Nancy 14, Elisha 6, William 20, Martha 17, and Rutha 8 months. William is his son and Martha, Williams wife, Martha Caudill. Eight month old Rutha their daughter. Household # 2 is a David Johnson age 22 and his family . Household #3 is a Abisha Johnson age 31 and family, Household #4 is Andrew Johnson
age 27 and family. I believe David, and Andrew to be Elisha at houshold # 1's sons. I believe there is some relationship also to Abisha at household #3

Elisha Johnson is on the 1860 Floyd Co Ky Census
in household # 257. Listed are Elisha Johnson 40, Elizabeth 40,
David 14, William 11, Rutha 7, and Nancy 3.

Elisha Johnson is on the 1850 Floyd Co Ky census,
listed in household #270 at age 30, Elizabeth 28, Mary 9, Andrew 7, David 4, and William 4 months.

My Elisha is neither the "Ground Hog" the "Red" nor the "Black"
Johnson, as their birth dates are 1838, 1828, and 1802.

I have found no documentation as to the parents of Elisha Johnson b 1819, and so far no one has sent any information as to
where they have.
