From Houston Post Sept 6, 1949
Title Gen Johnson Lauded as Good Neighbor BoosterThree Houstonians returned from Mexico praising the efforts of Gen Harry H Johnson, executive on leave from the Gulf Oil Corporation in behalf of good neighbor relations between Mexico and the United States.
William A. Smith, banker and contractor, and Jack Porter independent oilman were guests of the Mexican government at the dedication Saturday of the Palo Alto research laboratory on the outskirts of Mexico City.
Jesse W. George, oilman, also was a member of the party which returned Sunday.
"Gen Harry Johnson is making the greatest contribution to the betterment of good relations between Mexico and the United States that has taken place in the last 100 years" Mr. Porter said.
"As co-director of the campaign to eliminate foot and mouth disease from Mexico, General Johnson has won his way into the hearts of the Mexicans and has done wonders in the field of human relations between the two countries."Mr. Smith said the joint Mexico-U.S. commission produced 5,500,000 doses of vaccine and vacinnated over 3,500,000 animals in August.
"General Johnson has built an organization in Mexico that would bring credit to any United States corporation or company," said Mr. Smith.

Mexican Ball Teams in Close Game Last Sunday
The local Mexican baseball team went to Gonzales last Sunday for a game with the team of that city, and came out in the little end of a close 2 to 1 score. The game is said to have been exciting throughout.
The same two teams play in Eagle Lake on next Sunday afternoon beginning at 3:30 o’clock. The grounds will be in the H. S. Johnson pasture, near the Johnson service station.
The Rosales brothers constitute the battery for Eagle Lake, Reuben doing the twirling act and Aaron behind the bat. The brothers are said to be unusually clever. No doubt many Eagle Lake people will be out to witness this game next Sunday. The admission price will be 25 cents.

Hi, Was her brother perchance married in Quebec? If it's
the parents name's youre looking for, if a marriage between Philippe
Arseneault occurred in Gaspe I can send you the info, and you can
check that out further. I guess the parents names werne't listed on the
marraige certificate?
As for how to get Birth certificate/info, well here in Quebec, we have no
civil registry before 1994. We use Baptismal certificates. In order to get
that, you need to know the parish she was baptised at. Since you don't
know, I think the Gov't of Quebec that handles that will do a search for a
fee (20$ Cdn I think) and see if they can find it. I don't know how far
back they can search though, but it's a start right?
Atleast if they can cover that time frame. As well, it wouldn't hurt to give
them a call (don't have the number on hand, you're the 10th person to
ask about birth certificates should find that number) :)
They're on the web, and there's a link located off the Canada Quebec
Genweb project on rootsweb. Probably a good place to look
for that data. Hope this helps, RachelBIRTH: Could have been Gaspesie

Stuff to send to contact for her
I am looking for my great great Grandmother's family. Her name is Celestine Arseneault. She was born in Gaspe Quebec on March 3rd 1872. She has two sisters named Marie and Denise and two brothers named Phillip and Arthur. She left Quebec and went to Minnesota, Duluth area. She married Arthur Morisseau there and died there in 1965. As far as I can tell, she completely left her Arseneault roots behind because we have nothing at all on her parents. She was a praticing Catholic. I am looking for her parents. Any ideas on what I can do?
Je recherche la famille de ma grande grande grand-mère. Son nom est Celestine Arseneault. Elle est née dans Gaspé Québec le 1872 3 mars. Elle a deux soeurs nommées Marie et Denise et deux frères nommés Phillip et Arthur. Elle a quitté le Québec et est allée au Minnesota, région de Duluth. Elle a épousé Arthur Morisseau là et est morte là en 1965. Dans la mesure où je puis dire, elle complètement à gauche que son Arseneault s'enracine derrière parce que nous n'avons rien du tout sur ses parents. Elle était une catholique de pratique. Je recherche ses parents. Des idées sur ce que je puis faire?

http://www.columbustexas.net/library/history/part7.htmThe following year, Robert Branch Johnson, and his brother, Henry Madison Johnson, who was also Robert E. Stafford's brother-in-law, organized a trail drive of their own to Kansas. The Johnsons had purchased three sizeable herds of cattle in the winter of 1868, when prices were still very low. In early 1870, they added considerably to their herd. A few months later, on June 11, 1870, they and Bob Stafford and two of his brothers, Benjamin Franklin Stafford and John Stafford, gathered about 800 head. Apparently, Bob Johnson, Ben Stafford, and John Stafford went on the drive. So did a young black cowboy named George Glenn, who had been raised by Bob Johnson. When Johnson died in Kansas that autumn, he was quickly buried. After his family heard of the death, they asked that his body be disinterred and returned to Columbus. When everyone else balked at the prospect of bringing the body back down the trail, Glenn volunteered. Setting out alone, sleeping atop Johnson's coffin every night and chasing away the many wild creatures which followed him (and Johnson's body), he made the trip in 42 days.

Johnson; John Edward Folts, "A Faithful Negro Servant," in John Marvin Hunter, ed., The Trail Drivers of Texas (Nashville, Tennessee: Cokesbury Press, 1925), pp. 645-646; J. Frank Dobie, "The Old Trail Drivers," The Country Gentleman, vol. 40, no. 7, February 14, 1925; Typewritten affidavit attributed to George Glenn in Johnson Family File, Archives of the Nesbitt Memorial Library, Columbus. Henry M. Johnson had married Harriet Barbara Stafford on March 19, 1868 (see Colorado County Marriage Records, Book E, p. 96). It has been assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that the conveyance of some 800 cattle by Henry Johnson and Bob Stafford to Bob Johnson, Ben Stafford, and John Stafford was the formality necessary to allow the last named three to sell the cattle when they got them to Kansas, and that therefore all three went along on the drive. Glenn implies that Johnson's brothers went along. It is not inconceivable that he meant the Staffords, who were Johnson's brother's brothers-in-law. Folts, writing about fifty years later, states that Johnson died in July 1870, however, in January 1871, Henry Johnson, in a document relating to his brother's probate proceedings, stated that he died "in the State of Kansas about the first part of October 1870."
More than 80 Colorado County men served in various companies in the often reorganized 13th Texas Infantry Regiment, which spent most of the war stationed in Texas. The men of the 13th Texas returned home on furloughs and various errands with some regularity, and rarely if ever laid eyes on anyone in a blue uniform. Some of the Colorado County men, including Robert Levi Foard, William G. Hunt, and Henry Madison Johnson, achieved high rank. Foard, who had been a young attorney before the war, and Hunt, who was in his late 40s, entered the service on October 24, 1861. Both signed on for one-year terms. Foard began as a lieutenant and Hunt a sergeant. When their company was incorporated into the 13th Texas and designated Company G on June 11, 1862, two of the original lieutenants, Alexander J. Folts and John Mackey, failed to win reelection, and both immediately secured discharges because of their ages. Hunt, however, who was older than either, was elected lieutenant and extended his term for two years. Foard did even better, getting the rank of captain and command of the company. He so impressed his superiors that, on November 14, 1863, he was promoted major. Hunt was promoted captain and given command of the company, which by then had been redesignated Company C. Less than a year later, on the third anniversary of his initial enlistment, Hunt resigned his commission, citing his three years of service, and noting that "I am now in my fifty second year, and begin to feel the effects of old age. I do not feel able to undergo the fatigues of a soldiers life." Johnson, who had enlisted in the same unit as a corporal, rose through the ranks and eventually, on November 26, 1864, took Hunt's place as captain .51
