William's death certificate may be seen in both familysearch.org and ancestry.com. On the certificate, his parents were named as William Johnson and Anna Stretsher. I believe that Anna was his stepmother. William's mother, as explained below, was Elizabeth Hinshaw or Henshaw.

William married Adaline Sterner on September 3, 1870, in Wapello County. After her death, he married Maude Shadford on October 6, 1912, in Wapello County.

In the 1880 Wapello County Census, William and Addie were living with their daughters, Fannie M., age 8, and Delaina B, age 4. William's step-mother, Anna Johnson, age 65, was also living with their family.

In William's marriage record to Maude, his mother's name is given as Elizabeth Henshaw. In the January 1, 1925 Census for Wapello County, Iowa, William stated that his mother's maiden name was Elizabeth Hinshaw.

William and his first wife, Adaline, are buried with his sister Priscilla Johnson and her family in the Elijah Johnson plot.
