He was a private assigned to Company "A" as of February 10, 1864. John was in the hospital on March 25, 1864 and in October 1864. It is not known if he was in the hospital from March to October or if he was admitted twice. After that he never showed present on any Company "A" rolls. He was shown on the Union list of refugees and deserters in April 21, 1865. He was sent from City Point, Virginia to Fort Powhatan.

  2. 3.  JOHNSON Adney was born on 7 Nov 1852 (daughter of JOHNSON William and FOWLER Elizabeth); died on 1 Mar 1907; was buried in Burrowsville, VA.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Name: Adnie
    • Reference Number: 1302

    Notes:

    Notes for ADNIE JOHNSON: Adnie Johnson was the second wife of John Leonardis Home. They had eight children. They were married sometime after 1871.

    Susie Horne Laine had tuberculosis and died in Catawba Sanatorium on Valentine Day, February 14, 1934 at 8pm. See the scrapbook for telegram notifying M. A. R. Laine of her death.
    Evelyn Ruth Laine saved two letters that were written by Adnie Johnson Horne to Susie Horne. One letter was written on July 13, 1906 and the other was written on August 2, 1906. Adnie Johnson Horne lived in Talpa, Virginia. According to a Virginia map circa 1900, this was in south Prince George County very close to the Dinwiddie and Sussex County lines. At the time she wrote the letters she was a widow. Her husband John L. Horne died the previous year, May 15, 1905. Also at this time Pearl, Susie's sister, was married to Andrew G. Dunn. Pearl was three to four months pregnant with her first child who would be born on January 26, 1907. Susie Horne went to live with Pearl probably because her mother was ailing (Adnie Johnson Horne died on March 1, 1907), her father died the year before, her brother John and sisters Lula and Mattie were at home and could take care of their mother, and Pearl needed help at home. At this writing, the location where Pearl and Andrew lived is unknown but was apparently far enough away from Talpa that frequent visits were difficult. Adnie Johnson Horne's letters spoke of friends Rob and Nellie Temple being ill with Typhoid fever, and spoke of trips to Salum for 'meatings', and a planned trip to Shilo for Lula and Mattie. There are currently two churches in what is now the Templeton District of Prince George County, one is Salem Methodist Church on Templeton Road, and about three and one half miles away, at 18310 Halifax Road, is the Shiloh Baptist Church. It is assumed that Adnie was referring to these Churches as the places for the meetings.
    See the scrapbook for the letters and pictures of the churches.
    Letters:
    It is interesting to note the various cursive style for individual letters, date notation, and lack of punctuation. Spelling apparently was based on phonics. The letters were dated July 13 19 6, and August 2 19 6. There was no comma after the day, and the year was written nineteen six, no zero before the six. Note words: awlways (always), fiew (few), receaved (received), yore (your), thare (there), weak (week), etc.
    Two of Susie Horne's cousins were judges. Judge West in Petersburg, and Judge Temple in Prince George County.

    Notes:

    Research under Pensylvania Dutch and or North Carolina (per Paige West Cowdin) 3/2014

    The Raines family had $7,000 in Real Estate abd $12,000 in Personal, which made them very wealthy by the standards of those days. The Horne family only had $500 in personal and no real estate dollars entered which probably means they were renting the farm from the Raines, and Wm's son Zack T. married Bart's daughter. They were listed as neighboring families on the census.

    I'm not aware of any old bibles. I got some of the information from a letter from Lula Horne to my mother, some from two letters that my aunt had that were written by Adnie Johnson Horne to Susie Horne(around 1906),some from Greg Werner, and some from visiting the cemetery in Prince George County. I also checked out some Civil War records for John Horne and census records for all.
    Horne's came from England in 1716

    Age showed 35 in the 1850 census and occupation as farmer. Also showed as born in Virginia.

    Received from: Chasclem2@aol.com

    Gene,
    I have not found much more than I sent. I will look through my information and respond if I find something of interest.

    Did you attend the reunion last year? I wanted to attend but was in Europe at the time.

    If you have any information on the Hornes or Laines I wouls appreciate it.

    Chuck Clemens

    The Horne's came from England in 1716

    There are a Robert H. Horne, 34; Henry Horne, 51; Richard Horne all on the 1870 Sussex Census. (may be brothers of Williamson) There is also a Cyrus Horne, 40 on the 1850 Sussex Census and a Jane Horne, born 1815 also on the Sussex census
