The deceased married and came to Wisconsin many years ago. Losing her first husband, she was later married to Edward Clarke Johnson who preceded her in death, just seven days, and afterwards made her home in this city. To this union there survives two children who are living, Charles R. Johnson, of this city, and Mrs. Ione Klingenfelt of New York City; also a daughter by her first marriage, Mrs. Marina Rowe of Palmyra, Wis. The death of Mrs. Johnson was very sudden, she dropping dead while visiting a close neighbor, Mrs. Peebles. The funeral will take place from the Charles R. Johnson home on Almeron street, tomorrow at 1 o'clock, Rev. A. W. Barnlund having charge of the services, interment being in Maple Hill cemetery. For the past twenty-five years the deceased made her home with her son, Charles R. Johnson, and her life has been a happy one with the consolation and care of loving relatives and friends.
