John L. "Saddler" is not same as John Johnson, son of Moses. John L. born in KY.
A tree on Ancestry DNA Johnson Leads by doylejohnson67 seems to be DNA connected to John L and has noted there is no proof that John L. is Moses' son. Indeed, our DNA does not match to doylejohnson67. John "Saddler" is a different line."

Nancy "Polly" Miller was born in 1805 in Mississippi; died after 1880 in of, Vernon Parish, Louisiana.

Other Events and Attributes:

Census: 1850, Calcasieu, Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana

Notes:

some internet sites say she is daughter of Richard Miller b abt 1794 and Sarah Simmons.
But if she was born 1805, Richard has to be older. Abt 1794 would make him only 11.
These trees also say that Sarah Simmons b abt 1779 was daughter of James Simmons Jr 1775-1838 Cole's Creek, Natchez. Again, dates are not logical. James Simmons Jr is shown to have married Nancy Ann Sullivan b abt 1760. Perhaps just typos? A Sarah Simmons did married James Cole Sr. 1814 not giving her much time to have married Miller and had Nancy in 1805. James Cole Sr. did marry a Sarah Miller House on 7 Dec 1849. Records seem to be really mixed up.
