WJ Johnson's nephew, T W Warren, gave a deposition in the case of his widow's pension application, as to Johnson's demise he states as follows: I knew William Johnson during his lifetime, and know that he was killed near Wood Station, about march 1864, Johnson was at home on furlough at the time and was visiting my mother, who was a sister of his wife; and while visiting our house some Federal Soldiers came by, and Johnson with a man by the name of Whitley, who was with him started to get away and the Federal Soldiers killed them near our house, I saw them after they were killed.
Note: I believe the man names Whitley is Philo Whitley from same company, the other two Whitley's in the roster s of the 23rd Georgia are found in the 1870 census for Walker Co. Ga. and Philo is not there.
Andrew Coulter, member of same company, says Johnson left the command on about last of Feb or 1st of March 1865 and came home and know that on or about the 28th of March 1865 he was killed by Federal Scouts

That he was then only a boy going about home where he pleased. He further swears that he was forman of the Grand Jury of Whitfield County in 1904 as he remembers when Pope's right to a pension was questioned and had said Pope brought before the grand jury to be questioned as to his war service and could not give an account of service at all in accord with his pension papers, trying to place his enlistment at an entirely different date from what he had sworn to, couldn't give names of officers of regiment nor of company, except the Captain, and from what applicant knew personally he was never in the army up to the fall of 1863 when he claimed a much earlier datein his application.
