We are indebted to my grandfather, Judge John Graham Johns of Prestonsburg, Kentucky for this information, who states that he was one of the pioneer settlers of that state, and he was doing business before the state was formed.  He says that he (Judge John Graham Johns is the son of David Graham Sr. and a brother to Joseph) married Mrs. Fannie Cecil Jones of Ashland, Kentucky, who was the direct descendent of Admiral John Paul Jones of Revolutionary fame and the daughter of Colonel John Paul Jones of Ashland, Kentucky.  (NOTE:  He was elderly and confused here.  John Graham was the son of David Graham.  Judge John Graham Johns was the grandson of John Graham.  He is combining two men, two generations apart.)  She was also a direct descendent of Ann Poague McGinity who brought the first spinning wheel into Kentucky.  (I think this is an exaggeration but makes a good sounding family folklore.)  They had two sons, Graham Francis Johns and Lindsay Poague Johns.  Graham graduated from Kentucky Wesleyan and furthered his studies at the University of Louisville Medical School.  (He did not graduate.)  Graham settled in Winchester, Kentucky, where he went into the coal business and married Miss Nancy Belle Ecton, daughter of a prominent land owner, that specialized in dairy cattle, tobacco, and active politics.  They had one girl, Madge Culver, and one son, Graham Jr.
    Madge graduated from Gulf Park School for Ladies where she was very prominent as a horsewoman, and the University of Kentucky.  At Kentucky she was a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma social sorority and the Lexington Hunt Club.  Madge married Lindsay Douglas of Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, and they settled in the Ohio Valley with their three children.  Lindsay III, a fine athlete and student, has been accepted by Center College of Kentucky.  Taylor Johns, also a fine athlete, excels in swimming and golf and is still in high school.  Nancy Graham is starting grade school is is very active and keen.  Graham Jr. entered Center College on an athletic scholarship where he was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon Fraternity and Keys Honorary Fraternity.  He was captain of college basketball and tennis teams.  Graham married Joan Schlegel of Richmond, Kentucky, and settled in Winchester, Kentucky, in the Coal and Building Supply business.  He was commissioned Kentucky Colonel for athletics.  They had one son, Graham F. Johns, III, who at an early age excels in judging and managing Shorthorn cattle, music, athletics, and mathematics.  He will enter Center College with the aid of his family and moral support of his friend, Miss Wilma Thaxton of Winchester.
    At the death of her husband, Nancy Belle Johns became quite prominent in the business world, her ventures being coal, sand, gravel, and real estate.  In recognition of this feat she was commissioned a Kentucky Colonel by the Governor of Kentucky.
    Lindsay Poague was an officer in World War I.  He was decorated with the Imperial Ruby of Japan by the Emperor for averting a war between Japan and Russia.  Lindsay was captured and made his escape in Siberia, where he met Miss Nadja Glovinsky, daughter of the Colonel of the Czar's personal staff.  They made their home in Lafayette, Indiana.  He started a Lumber Company and personally drew all of the blue prints.  They have a son, Lindsay Jr., who is getting his education at Purdue.
    By another wife, Judge Johns had two sons, Thomas, who earned a law degree at Center College, and John who became an invalid at an early age and passed away.  (NOTE: Thomas was never a lawyer.  He is in error here.)  
    Mr. Johns' sister, Emma, married George Archer, President of Bank of Josephine, Prestonsburg, Kentucky.  Their sons Ralph, George II, and John became doctors and stayed in the Big Sandy Valley.  Another sister Elizabeth married and went to the western part of the United States.
    Mrs. Fannie Johns' sisters were Charlotte who settled in Winchester, Kentucky, and taught elocution and gave fencing instructions, and Madge who married Mr. Schultz, New York.  Sallie became a woman doctor and Lucy married a Mr. Moore of Ashland, Kentucky.
