Biography

Anne (Anny) Johnson was born about 1782 in Virginia. Family records show that she was the oldest of 11 known children born to John Johnson and Ann (last name unknown) . By 1798, she was living with her parents in or near Madison, Kentucky, with at least five younger siblings.

On the 15th of June 1798, when Anne was about 16 years old, she married [Wade-2436|William Wade] in Madison, Kentucky. He was 22. Kentucky marriage records include the original of a handwritten scrap of paper signed by Anne's father and witnessed by two local men, which reads as follows: (keeping original spelling and capitalization, no punctuation)

This is to certify that I John Johnson do give free privelige to Wm Wade to get lisons [license] to Marry anny Johnson This from under my hand John Johnson [loopy signature ]
Thos Grubbs
Arther Johnson

The official record of their marriage is found in the microfilm of Madison County records database available in "Kentucky, County Marriages, 1797-1954", available on Family Search. [1]

By 1820, William and Anny Wade were living in Cole County, Missouri, one of many locations where soldiers in the War of 1812 were granted land claims in lieu of payment for their services. [Incorporate documentation on role of Daniel Boone and Henry McKinney.]

After her husband James Ephraim Durham's death in 1845, Anny married William Fletcher, also of Cole County. [Possible third husband William Miller, needs documentation.]
