Ref: Maro Johnson – The ancestry of Ann Jane Love, wife of Guy Johnson, is complicated by the fact that the birth name of her father, her mother, her maternal grandfather and her maternal grandmother was Love. Some of their descendants have been of the opinion that they originated in Scotland, and came to Northern Ireland during the great migration in the seventeenth century. At the time they came to America there had been only one intermarriage, so far as now known, among the three families, that of Ann's maternal grandparents.
It is thought that all were Presbyterians, with one possible exception, which will be mentioned later, and all were residents of County Donegal in extreme northwestern Ireland.
Mrs. Johnson, Ann Love, was born in Roscoe, Ohio, November 14, 1850, and came with her parents to Iowa City in 1855. She attended the public schools and studied for two years in the preparatory department of the State University. She cared for her father in his last long illness and was especially remembered in his will for this service. She was a kind and faithful person, but burdened with illness during her later years. She died Jan. 14, 1913. Mr. Johnson, much broken up by her death, died Feb. 1, 1916. Both are buried in Oakland Cemetery, Iowa City.
