Growing up we mostly affiliated with our mother side of the family not because of any animosity towards our father side it’s just who is present who we knew. Our oldest sibling Jennifer was much more knowledgeable as to family connections and our place on the family tree. Naturally with me being the youngest sibling things like details did not concern me, but I was a child. I would later learn that there was “fathers family” around. Not only around, but prominent. In 1977 a Simple knock on the 269 front door that was followed by an introduction of Rachelle Johnson to Jayson (me).Connecting with another “Johnson” was huge to Jayson. While having cousins was nothing new, this was Jaydon’s first time meeting cousins who shared the last name of Johnson. Through Rachelle, 269 connected with her siblings Rick, Rob and Roselyn who will lived in the mid west ( KC ).
