Adoniram Judson Johnson

Baptist Pastor/Colporteur OH/IN

Adoniram Judson, Jr., was working on the Burmese-English dictionary, which is still in use today, when Adoniram Judson Johnson was born on 15 November 1843 in Muskingum, Ohio. Various census takers have spelled his name Adaniron or Adamison but these public servants spelled phonetically when necessary. We know that Rev. Johnson was married in 1869 but do not know the name of his bride or anything about his family. He served as a District Secretary for the American Baptist Publication Society 1864-1876.[1] Rev. Johnson died August 15, 1918, Liberty Center, Wells County, Indiana…[2]
