Notes:
Historical References from John Howell:
Note from Knights Roster of Georgia Revolutionary Soldiers: "John Johnson - fought at the battle of Kettle Creek."
Notes from J Howell:
Notes from Wikipedia: The Battle of Kettle Creek was fought on February 4th, 1779, in Wilkes County near present day Washington, Georgia. It is one of the most important battles of the American Revolutionary War ot be fought in Georgia. The victory by the Patriots virtually ended the movement by the Loyalists to remain loyal to the Kingdom of Britain.
Extract from Revolutionary papers in the Georgia State Archives, Atlanta, Georgia:
"This is to certify that the bearer, Captain John Johnson of the first Battallion of Richmond County Militia of the State of Georgia, served as a reffugee and bore the rank of Captain, who took an active part in the fite & performed his duty of a good and faithful soldier. Given my hand at Pigeon Hill the 17th of march 1764 (A) Jas. McNeil, Colonel"
"To the Honorable President: Your petitioner, John Johnson, prays for land agreeable to the within Certificate and in Washington County (A) John Johnson"
Note from Lundie W. Barlow on above: "Washington County, Georgia, was established 25 February, 1784 from Indian lands; Greene County was established, 3 February, 1786 from Washington County, and included that territory which later became Hancock County."
LBSH chart notes:
"..a Rev. Soldier Hancock, Georgia between Sparta and White Plains."
From "History of Greene Co., GA":
p. 34 "When Greene Co. (GA) was first organized in February 1786 there were quite a number of settlers who had moved in, and secured land grants while theis territory belonged to Washington County, therefore, the names of Greene's earliest settlers do not appear on the following list."
The list mentioned above is called "Head Rights Granted to the Citizens of Greene County", begins p. 35, and shows name, acres granted and year granted. The Johnsons (relationship to this John Johnson unknown) that appear on the list are (cronological order):
William Johnson 150 acres Ogeechee River, 1787
William Johnson, 280 acres Ogeechee River, 1788 William Johnson, 50 acres, 1789
John Johnson, 72 acres, Beaverdam Creek, 1798
From Mary Jordan (RootsWeb, Greene Co. board):
"John Johnson served in the Revolutionary War and his widow received land in the land lottery."
"John Johnson's widow received a land grant for his service in the revolutionary war."
Lundie Barlow notes:
"Note from the minutes of White Plains Baptist Church: John Johnson and Elizabeth Johnson, charter members of this church, organized 1806, White Plains, Georgia."
"John Johnson, in his will dated 13 December 1814, bequeathed to his wife, Elizabeth Johnson, six negro slaves including Peter and Mariah."
"Note from page 174 of Houston's reprint of Eligiblees for the 1827 Land Lottery: Elizabeth Johnson, widow of a Revolutionary Soldier, Hancock County, Georgia" [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]

Notes:
Isaac Ashfield Cain, Sarah's second husband, was an American who it is believed went to the Californian goldfields with brother Timothy Cain previous to 1850 and emmigrated to Australia around 1852. In 1855 Isaac was living in Buckland River on the Australian gold fields. By 1862, Isaac and Sarah Hagan had moved to the Oban Diggings in NSW. The family remained in the Rocky River area of the New England region. Isaac Ashfield Cain died in 1865 falling from his horse.
Immigrated to Australia in 1852, per Kate (Lloyd) Morley, Kate (Lloyd) Morley, (http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=klloyd77. katie [[email protected]]), email to JSHJr. 1 Jun 2007 "They travelled to Australia in abt 1852 to find gold. "
About Cain, Isaac Ashfield
Extracts from Armidale Express 13.5.1865. "In the midst of life we are in death" This aphorism was painfully illustrated here as Mr. Cain, a resident of Kentucky Creek accompanied by this wife, had ridden into Mr. Cleghorns store to purchase the usual store goods; and mounted, on their return home about 4.30. After proceeding a few yards up the road at a canter, some of those useless curs kept by the Chinamen rushed out at the horses. Mr. Cain told his wife to pull up, as he was afraid his horse was about to buck, which it did, and flung him over its head, causing him to come violently to the ground, head first, and, it is supposed, striking a stone. On the doctors arrival he declared the case hopeless, and death resulted about 1am. Isaac died of a fractured skull and injuries to the brain.
HISTORY:
In July 1851, Melbourne's 29,000 residents celebrated as they broke away from New South Wales and the Colony of Victoria was born. Weeks later it was announced that gold had been found in Victoria. The first discoveries were by Louis Michel at Warrandyte, 30 kilometres north-east of Melbourne, James Esmond at Clunes in July 1851, and Thomas Hiscock at Buninyong, near Ballarat, on 2 August 1851.
On 20 July 1851 Thomas Peters, a hut-keeper on William Barker?s Mount Alexander station, found specks of gold at what is now known as Specimen Gully. This find was published in the Melbourne Argus on 8 September 1851, leading to a rush to the Mount Alexander or Forest Creek diggings, centred on present-day Castlemaine, claimed to be the richest shallow alluvial goldfield in the world.
These discoveries were soon surpassed by bigger ones at Ballarat and Bendigo, and more finds in a number of other locations around Victoria followed.
YearPopulation of Melbourne*
18350
184010,000
185129,000(Total Australian Continental Population - 437,000)
1854123,000
1861 538,000 (47% of Total Australian Population - 1,151,947)
*Population of Melbourne and Surrounds
The population of Melbourne grew swiftly as the gold fever took hold. The total number of people in the state of Victoria also rose. By 1851 it was 75,000 people. Ten years later this rose to over 600,000.
First to be obtained was the 'easy' gold (alluvial); that which was to be found on the surface. It is reported that miners when first arrived on the Mt Tarrengower fields nuggets were picked up without digging. This was followed by exploitation of alluvial gold usually in creeks and rivers. The seekers used gold pans, puddling boxes and cradles to separate this gold from the dirt and water.
Isaac Ashfield Cain spent his last days in Kentucky Creek, having arrived in the early 1860's following the newest gold discoveries and commencement of sluicing operations in the late 1850's. Kentucky Creek lies in the far south-east corner of the Gwydir catchment south of Uralla. This is Australia's traditional central New England Tablelands' country, with the creek flowing north-west through open grazing country including Kentucky Station, one of New England's original squatting properties. Now the bushranger Fred Ward, aka Captain Thunderbolt, roamed widely across New England from the Hunter in the south into the Queensland portion of the New England Tablelands, so many places can and do claim a connection. But he was shot and killed in Kentucky Creek, just north you can find Thunderbolt's Rock where he used to watch for the gold coaches, while Uralla cemetery is his final resting place. Uralla is 488 km south of Brisbane and 502 km north of Sydney.
