Robert Harrington Johnson and Bathsheba/Bersheba Potter

Robert Harrington Johnson was born 11 Nov 1796 in VA, the son of Francis Johnson and Nancy Harrington. A biography gives him as dying on 21 Feb 1837 at McLean Co. IL at 40 and is buried at the Scoggin Hill Cemetery in Bloomington IL. There is however a problem with his death date as on the 30th of March 1837 he took out a land patent for 80 acres in McLean county.

Bathsheba/Bersheba Potter is given as having been born 1789 in TN, and died 2 Oct. 1859 in McLean Co. IL. She is also buried at the Scoggin Hill Cemetery in Bloomington IL.

Robert and Bathsheba were married Aug 1814 in Overton Co. TN.

If one looks at the census information below, it seems reasonable that Bathsheba would be related to the family of a Thomas Potter who was located several pages away in the 1820 Jackson County, Tennessee census, but there as of yet no known links to the family. Also, that family didn’t enter Tennessee until, it seems, not long before 1820, whereas Bathsehba gives herself as born in Tennessee. She would not be a child of that family as that Thomas married an Ann, and it appears that Bathsheba’s mother may have been a Sarah. In 1830 an elder woman was in the household, and in Dec. 1831 RH Johnson applied to the Court for relief for Sarah Potter, an insane person in his care. I’m unable to find any burial information currently for Sarah Potter.

When Bathsheba was widowed in 1837, the eldest of her 10 children was but 12.

The family story as to their daughter, Mary Jane (our direct line), is as follows:

John (Fowler) was a Union sympathizer and had to leave NC. Came to Bloomington, IL where he decided to settle. He disguised himself as a peddler and returned to NC to get the girl he loved. They eloped and were married and moved to Osage Mission, KS in 1863. Her family was so angry with her husband that she never heard from them again.

Nancy Benton notes that this was passed along to her from Cora Granger, related to the Brewers through the Spurlings, along with family sheets prepared by Dottie Skinner Elliott, and that there was no source given other than family story.

The Johnson family had actually migrated to ILL when Mary Jane was little (see Robert Herrington Johnson information), her father died when she was only 5 years of age, she is in the 1850 census with her mother, and her mother died in 1859 (so both parents were dead before the move to Kansas) and even in 1860 Mary Jane had family living in the McLean County area around she and John. So that’s one story that bites the dust, though it raises questions as to why the estrangement story would have arisen in the first place. The story may be accidentally assigned and belong to a relative, and it was thought because Mary Jane moved to Kansas that she was the one estranged, or there may have been an estrangement here which has become mixed with the story of yet another.

The following article is the source for new data on the family that places the Johnsons in IL by the 1820s.

The article notes a George Hinshaw having constructed a cabin for Robert and his family prior his arrival. This is George Hinshaw who married Susannah, Robert’s sister. Marietta Johnson married a brother of George, Jacob. George and Jacob Hinshaw with their families moved to Illinois in the Spring of 1827, preceding Robert Harrington Johnson.

ROBERT HARRINGTON JOHNSON

Robert H. Johnson was born November 11, 1796, in Virginia. His father was
Francis Johnson, and his mother’s name before her marriage was Nancy
Harrington. Francis Johnson was born in Ireland, and brought to America when he
was four years of age. Nancy Harrington was partly of Pennsylvania Dutch
descent. When Robert Johnson was only four years of age he was taken to Jackson
County, Tennessee, where he lived until he was twenty-six or seven years of
age. There he followed framing and tanning leather. He married in August, 1814,
Bathsheba Potter. In about the year 1822 or ’23 he went to Overton County,
Tennessee, where he lived until the year 1828, when he came to Illinois. He
came on his journey by team and arrived at Blooming Grove on the first of
December. He had no particular adventure except that his daughter Mathurza fell
from a horse which she was riding, and broke her thighbone, and the party was
delayed fifteen days in consequence. The party arrived at Blooming Grove in the
evening of December 1, when everyone for miles around was at church. As the
party passed the church, a bell on one of the colts was heard by the
congregation, and it was known that another family had arrived. The addition of
a single family to the neighborhood was then a great event, and at the close of
the meeting the entire congregation, which was not large, though it included
everyone in the country for a great many miles around, came to see the Johnson
family and give them a welcome. No one waited for an introduction, but each
shook hands cordially and said: “How are you, Brother Johnson?” and, “How are
you, Sister Johnson?”

The family first moved to Three Mile Grove, now called Harley’s Grove, into a
log house fourteen feet square, with a few logs extending for a porch. This
cabin was put up for the Johnson family by George Hinshaw some months before
their arrival. It happened in the meantime that the Funks (Isaac and Absalom)
had driven a lot of pigs to this grove to eat the mast, and the latter had
taken possession of the unoccupied cabin. Pigs which have been running in the
timber, became wild, and when excited or aroused are more dangerous than any
other wild animal. During the night after the Johnson family moved into their
cabin, they heard their dog barking and fighting with the hogs. The cabin had
no door to it. A hole had been cut out for entrance, and also another for a
fire-place. In the latter a large fire was burning, and some green sticks were
near by. Mr. Johnson jumped up and grasped a long, green stick and met the
hogs, about seventy-five in number, in the door-way as they were attempting to
come in. He fought them there for life, while Mrs. Johnson prevented them from
coming in at the fire-place by throwing fire at them. Mr. Johnson fought until
he was exhausted completely. He battered their heads; he struck powerful blows,
and at last knocked off the snout of one of the hogs, which ran squealing away
to Funk’s Grove, followed by the whole drove. But Mr. Johnson, fearing the
return of the brutes, put his family into the wagon to protect them. The next
day Isaac, Absalom and Robert Funk came up to Harley’s Grove to whip the band
of villains, who, they thought, had been knocking out the eyes and breaking the
snouts of their hogs; but when they learned what a fight Mr. Johnson had made
to protect his family from being eaten up by the brutes, they left in a
different humor.

As the Johnson family was the first to settle in Harley’s Grove, the wild
animals were taken by surprise. A day or two after the hogs were driven off a
black wolf came up close to the door. During that winter Mr. Johnson killed a
great many deer within half a mile of the house. At one time he severely
wounded a deer, which turned on him and knocked him down several times; but it
was so badly hurt that he broke away and left it in a thicket within a few
hundred feet of the house. He went in for ammunition, and told the children to
stay inside and hold the door shut. But when he started for the thicket, the
children disobeyed orders and ran out and climbed the fence, and jumped on the
stumps to see the fun. The deer sprang up and ran towards the children, but the
dog grabbed it by the ear and Mr. Johnson shot it through the neck and it fell
within a few feet of the door. During the spring following, Mr. Johnson fenced
forty-five acres of land and planted nearly all of it in corn. But he was
unable to enter it immediately and soon afterwards a man named Jack Hougham
entered it away from him and gave him forty-five dollars for his improvement.
It was a custom among the old settlers never to enter a man’s claim away from
him; but Mr. Hougham had no such delicacy. He gave Mr. Johnson notice of his
intention and went to the land office and took up the land. Mr. Johnson then
settled on the south side of Twin Grove, improved a claim and entered the land,
and lived there until 1837, when he was killed by an ox which he was attempting
to yoke up to a wagon. This was on the twenty-first of February, 1837. He was a
very industrious man, and made shoes and looms in the winter, and worked his
land during the summer. He tanned leather for the whole country around.

Mr. Johnson had ten children, two of whom were born in the West. They are:

Nancy Johnson, who married Moses Wooden Brown, and lives at White Oak Grove in
Woodford County.

John S. W. Johnson lived at the head of the Mackinaw and died in 1865. Mathurza
Johnson, now the wife of Jeremiah Rhodes, lives three miles from Bloomington,
on the Leroy road. She furnished the items for this sketch, and seemed to have
very clear ideas and a good recollection.

Jacob H. Johnson lives between Brown’s Grove and Twin Grove.

Thomas P. Johnson lives near Osceola, Clark County, Iowa.

Benjamin M. Johnson lives about a mile and a half west of Bloomington.

Francis, Lewis S., and James B. Johnson, are dead.

Mary Jane Elizabeth Johnson married John Fowler, and lives in Osage Mission,
Kansas.

Mr. Johnson was about six feet in height, was possessed of immense strength,
but was very good-natured, kind-hearted and religious. He never wished to
quarrel with anyone, was always on good terms with his neighbors, and was very
honorable in all of his transactions.
