DELL JOHNSON----Prominent among the best known and most respected citizens of Elyria township, Lorain county, is Dell Johnson, who is contributing his full share towards the growth and upbuilding of this section of the Western Reserve, his energy and enterprise making him an important factor in advancing the leading interests of the community in which he resides. A native of Ohio, he was born March 27, 1850, in Rome, Richland county, a son of the late John H. Johnson. His paternal grandfather, James Johnson, was born May 6, 1785, in Ireland. Coming to the United States when a young man, he subsequently settled in Venango county, Pennsylvania, becoming owner of a farm of 200 acres, upon which oil was afterwards found. He married Mrs. Elizabeth (Sutley) Cousins, a widow, whose birth occurred April 5, 1791. Of their union five children were born, namely: John H., Sarah R., Robert H., Harrison R. and Hugh.
Born August 1, 1815, in Canal township, Venango county, Pennsylvania, John H. Johnson there grew to manhood, and as a youth learned the trade of a blacksmith. Locating in Warren, Pennsylvania, in 1841, he remained there until June 1845, when he bought land in Blooming Grove township, Richland county, Ohio, erected a shop and engaged in blacksmithing. He subsequently purchased a farm in Ripley township, same county, and in addition to managing his estate followed his trade for several years. He afterwards lived for a while in Greenwich township, Huron county, moving from there in 1860, to Brighton township, Lorain county, Ohio, where he spent his remaining years, passing away February 25, 1864. He married, in Warren, Pennsylvania, Elizabeth P. Snyder, who was born June 1, 1823, at Penn Yan, Yates county, New York, a daughter of John and Eliza (Pierce) Snyder, natives of New York state. She still occupies the old homestead in Brighton township, Lorain county, being a woman of venerable years.
Dell Johnson was brought up on the home farm, acquiring his early education in the district schools. Beginning life for himself after his marriage, he was for four years engaged in agricultural pursuits near Freeport, Wood county, Ohio. Returning then to Brighton township in 1878, he was for three years successfully employed in general farming and dairying. Purchasing then a factory, Mr. Johnson carried on an extensive and successful business as a manufacturer of cheese and butter for thirteen years, building up a good reputation for his dairy products, and a fine trade. Accepting the appointment of superintendent of the Lorain County Infirmary in November, 1893, he had charge of the institution for fourteen years and seven months, during which long period of continuous service he performed the duties devolving upon him with ability and fidelity. Soon after resigning his position Mr. Johnson purchased the northhalf of the Worthington farm, which is advantageously located at stop number five on the Green Line cars, on Lake avenue, and has since platted the estate. He completed, in March 1908, a handsome bungalow-cottage, fitted with all modern improvements. Of the forty house lots which he laid out, he has already sold more than one-half, and all have been finely improved and form quite a village.
On May 30, 1874, Mr. Johnson married Julia A. Emmons, who was born in Huntington township, Lorain county, Ohio February 6, 1856, a daughter of Joshua and Julia (Taylor) Emmons, natives respectively of western Pennsylvania and of Portage county, Ohio. Her parents were married about 1835, in Portage county, Ohio, and subsequently removed to Lorain county, where the death of Mrs. Emmons occurred in 1886, and that of Mr. Emmons in 1895. Of the two children born to Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, but one is living, namely: Pearl Marinda, wife of Chester F. Nichols, Jr. and she resides near her parents. The younger daughter, Lillian Amanda, died September 1, 1908, aged thirty years. She married Marce P. Cromling and left one son, Dell F. Fraternally Mr. Johnson is identified by membership with the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, having been made a Master Mason at Wellington, but is now affiliating with King Solomon's Lodge, A. F. & A. M., and is a member of Marshall Chapter, R. A. M.Father: John H. JOHNSON b: 11 AUG 1815 in Canal Twp, Venango, Pennsylvania

DEATH ENDS A LONG STRUGGLE
Mrs. M. P. Crombling Passes Away a Victim of Tuberculosis
WOULD NOT GIVE UP
Though a Sufferer For More Than Five Years Remained Cheerful Refusing To Lose Hope For Recovery-----Leaves Husband and Son, Dell Aged Six.
Mrs. M. P. Crombling of Lake avenue, died at nine o'clock Tuesday morning a victim of tuberculosis.
Mrs. Crombling has been in a serious condition for the past few weeks and her death was expected at any moment during the past day or two.
The deceased was the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dell Johnson of this city and was beloved by all who were fortunate to know her. She was married but a few years ago to Mr. M. P. Crombling and soon after it was discovered she was suffering from tuberculosis. Despite the heroic efforts made in her behalf, to say nothing of the brave fight she made for her life, the great white plague picked out a shining mark for its victim.
Lillie Johnson Crombling was a woman of rare beauty, kind, charitable and possessed all of the womanly virtues which are so necessary to mold such an upright and genteel character. She was but twenty seven years of age and leaves a six year old son Dell, a motherless lad.
Mrs. Crombling besides leaving a husband, is survived by her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Dell Johnson, and a sister, Mrs. Chester Nichols of this city.
