My Grandfather, William Henry Johnson was born July 1881 in Nashville, TN. This is the information on his South Carolina Death Certificate.

He was born after the 1880 census, the 1890 census doesn't exist. The closest match I can find to him is the 1900 Bledsoe County Census that shows a William Johnson, born 02/1881 residing as a boarder in the dwelling of George Dyer and his wife Addie. A few houses down is listed a dwelling for Edgar Johnson.

Does anyone have any information on these Johnson's? Are they related? Is Addie Dyer a sister?

Any help with this search would be greatly appreciated.
