Hello, I note that Mary Ellen Thomas, w/o Lewis N. Thomas is listed as having her parents born in GA. This is not correct. Her mother was Georgiann Johnson, d/o Elias Johnson and Elizabeth Keen. Georgiann was b. 1847 in Lake City FL. Mary Ellen's father is listed as Alonzo Johnson. We find no information on him. Georgiann's family migrated to DeSoto Co. c 1866 and her sister Sarah m. Mr. Tippins there 8/1867. Mary Ellen was b. 15 Dec 1867.
