Burial Details: Greenwood Cemetery
The Johnson-Ryan plot, purchased by WILLIAM HENRY JOHNSON, is located at 24 Thistle Aloe Orange in Cemetery G. It sustained significant damage during Hurricane Katrina. Unfortunately, someone went through afterward and made things even worse, removing broken markers so that they could not be documented and recreated, and sloppily painting over marble with white paint. Refurbishment is needed.
Individuals interred in this plot include:
1) James Ryan, father-in-law of William H. Johnson and father of Nellie Ryan Johnson
2) Anna Cahill Ryan, mother-in-law of William H. Johnson and mother of Nellie Ryan Johnson
3) William H. Johnson, purchaser of the plot (and thus the name "Johnson") and husband of Ellen (Nellie) Ryan
4) Ellen (Nellie) Ryan Johnson, wife of William H. Johnson
5) John F. Ryan, son of James and Anna Ryan and brother of Nellie Ryan Johnson
6) Matthew J. Ryan, son of James and Anna Ryan and brother of Nellie Ryan Johnson
7) Sandra Leone Johnson, wife of William H. Johnson, Jr. (who was the son of William H. and Nellie Ryan Johnson)
8) Ella (Nellie) Johnson Bethancourt, daughter of William H. and Nellie Ryan Johnson
