In 1838 a slave child named Joanna with her mother Ann were in an estate sale and sold for $1123.00 to James S. Gordon, neighbor of John C. Johns(t)on in Greene County, Alabama
1856 and Death
In 1856 division of slaves a Joanna with Savannah and Sallie were awarded to Robert Wilson Johnson. Their value $1275.00.
William Johnson born 1850 lists a Joeanna as his mother on his death certificate.
Mother Abbie Jane
Abby Jane was listed on Jane Turner's death certificate as her mother. Informant was Mathew Johnson from the second set.
Abby Jane was presumed to be the mother of Mary and Priscilla too. However, MtDNA evidence disputes this name as the mother of Jane.
