Marcus Johnson
b. 1845
Son of Alexander and Martha.
He shared many of the same qualities of his beloved Great Aunt Gertrude. He was a very practical type of a person. He was extraverted and enjoyed the company of others. When his brother moved away, Marcus was vigilant about finding his brother. After school each day, he’d ride out to different parts of town to see if anyone had seen him. He never gave up on his brother. When they were growing up, he always looked up to his brother – he always wanted to be just like him. Marcus loved his little sister. When she was younger, he’d told Gertrude that it was such a bother for him to take Marissa for walks or accompany her to the park. However, Marcus really did love those times when he spent with his sister. As he grew older, he became even closer to his sister. He grew up and had a beautiful family.
