Notes for Oran Datus Johnson

Source Church Register of Centerpoint (currently Diamond Methodist), Warrenton Circuit, North Alabama Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South: Register of Members lists Davis Johnson received August 1899 by baptism. This is probably Datus because on the next register he is listed as Datus. His death date was also recorded in the register as December 21, 1947 indicating that he was still a member of the church at the time of his death. Another place in the record lists buried Diamond Cemetery.

1920 Census District 130, Red Hill, Marshall Co, Alabama, p 127

November 21, 2004, David Johnson, Datus' son, at his home tells Calvin and Jean Ann Moon: that his father died of kidney poisoning from drinking too much. He remembers him taking the cap off a pint, throwing the cap away and drinking it all. He died when David was 17 years old before he finished high school.

Buried in the Anderson Cemetery
