General Notes:
Entered Henry Allen Johnson into 'search' and our web popped up as well as some others, but the most interesting was: www.americanjewisharchives.org <http://www.americanjewisharchives.org>
Turns out that Henry's grandmother, Rebecca Franks came from New York and her family were of Jewish background and going back to London and Germany. There was detailed family chart which I think will be attached to this e-mail. This website looks like it would make a good resource if you are researching any families that have Jewish ancestors.
Research Notes:
marriage record on order from LDS, Bengal India registers, 1886 as of Oct 12, 2004 ________________________________________
Henry Allen William Johnson remarried in 1897 (found in ancestry.com) to a Georgina Orde-Powlett. (September registration, District of Leyburn, Yorkshire, vol 9d, page 1035) Turns out it looks like her grandparents are Baron and Baroness Bolt from Yorkshire, a title that would have been inherited by her father's brother. Henry was a Captain in (I think) the Kings Own Yorkshire Regiment, so looks like he might have had some connections. _______________________________________ Quite a decent search of the 1901 census on-line index does not turn up anyone in this family of Henry Johnson and or children being Henry or Phylis Johnson. Ella Johnson does not turn up either on the 1901 census.. jca ______________________________________________

Marriage Notes:
Oct 21, 2004, jca
Now that the birth of Ella Dyson has been confirmed .. (father = Thomas Dyson and mother = Emily Sarah Henty) , the next step is to confirm that our particular Ella Dyson did indeed marry Henry Allen W Johnson in Bengal.
That would require examining the marriages of Bengal, vol 195, page 174 which would be contained on LDS film #510878... on order 12 Oct 2004
Henry next married Georgina Orde-Powlett, daughter of Hon. Amias Charles Orde-Powlett and Anne Martha Topham, on 18 Aug 1897 in Yorkshire 438.,439 (Georgina Orde-Powlett died on 31 Mar 1954 in Middlesex 361.)
