A crypt near the Lakeport Plantation
house contains the remains of Cable
Johnson (1865-1867), the last son of
Lycurgus and Lydia Johnson. It is
believed that three additional children
are buried nearby: Julia Johnson
(1860-1869), daughter of Lycurgus and
Lydia Johnson; Lucie Cable
Worthington (1880-1881),
granddaughter of Lycurgus and Lydia
Johnson; and Lydia J. Starling
(1879-1882), granddaughter of Lycurgus
and Lydia Johnson. A memorial
service at the restored crypt was part
of the Greater Johnson Family Reunion
during the Grand Opening weekend.
