Hello historians,
I would like to know if there are any living descendants of Sylvanus Johnson, 1813-1902, for whom contact information would be available.
Johnson County, Iowa is considering the choice of a non-living former resident to have the honor of having our county named after her or him, the present and original party having been lately found less than entirely praiseworthy.
Sylvanus arrived in Johnson County in 1839 and resided here until his demise. I've been tasked by a committee appointed by the Johnson County Supervisors to learn as much as I can and report at our next meeting. As such, I hope to have any news of descendants by August 18.
Immediate offspring are found listed here: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/90428122/sylvanus-johnson
So sorry for the shortness of time.
Thank you much for any assistance.
