The LaGrange Reporter reports that Mr. Benjamin F. Johnson who was the first 
man born in Troup County, was in that town on Saturday. He is now fifty-five 
years old and is a resident of Atlanta. Mr. Johnson's mother will be one 
hundred years old within a week or two. She now lives in the house in which 
her son was born, about three miles west of LaGrange. She was the first white 
woman that came to Troup county and at that time, the county was filled with 
Indians.
