Biography

Annis Johnson is the wife of Henry Tyler. She was born most likely in Virginia about 1760-1765.

In the early 2000's a Tyler researcher had been told the wife of Henry Tyler was an "Agatha Carter" and he located an "Agatha Carter" born in Amelia County, Virginia. He also disseminated this info via various message boards and in a tree on Ancestry.com. After some time, he found evidence in the Genforum post below that the wife of Henry Tyler was named Annis Johnson.

"Tyler family in GA" jrtyler Posted: 14 Jan 2010 2:53AM GMT

Recently I (John R. Tyler) discovered that the maiden name of (the wife of) Henry Tyler of Oglethorpe Co., GA was Johnson. This is part of the line of President Tyler of VA. The Johnson family also came from VA, and I mistakenly assumed that Annis Johnson was Agatha Johnson of Amelia Co., GA. Annis is a recognized nickname for Agnes or Agatha. This is now widely copied on Ancestry.com."

J. R. Tyler (descendant of Henry Tyler and Annis/Annice) stated his cousin told him that Annis's maiden name was "Carter" early into his Tyler research. He said that he spread this info around the Tyler circles and she was identified as "Annice Carter." He later determined her maiden name to be "Johnson." He also said he had made an erroneous connection with an Agatha Johnson of Amelia County, Va.
