Notes - Like his brother Philip, Caleb migrated westward to Ohio in the early 1820s:
"Before the year 1824 Leonard Metz, Newton Messenger, Col. Everett Messenger, Portius Wheeler, David Thompson, Elder David Dudley and Caleb Johnson, settled near the town of Big Island, forming quite a settlement in the place, where it was thought probable that the county seat would be located. The town of Big Island was laid out by Dr. Alson Norton. For many years after the county seat was located at Marion, repeated efforts were made to secure its removal to Big Island, and the hope of success was not wholly given up until the erection of the Court House in 1832."
