The Johnson Children

Do you know these children? They are the children of Sidney Kenneth Johnson and Wynonah Breazeale. Moving clockwise from the tallest boy: Sidney Kenneth (19 in this picture), Richard "Dick" Winslow (16), Seessel Anne (11), Cullen Bertram (5) with the puppy, baby Payne Breazeale (18 months), Carmencita Breazeale (8), and Cammilla (13). If you know how to contact them or their family, please let me know more or ask them to contact me.

Sidney Kenneth Johnson, born November 8, 1884, was the son of Sven Johan Johnson and Anna M. Boyum, (Sevath Ellendson Boyum’s daughter) was born November 8, 1884. He married Wynonah Breazeale.


They had the following seven children:

Sidney Kenneth Johnson

November 14, 1912

Richard Winslow Johnson

March 25, 1915

Cammilla Johnson

March 1, 1918

Seessel Anne Johnson

1920

Carmencita Breazeale Johnson

March 31, 1923

Cullen Bertram Johnson

April 30, 1926

Payne Breazeale Johnson

Somehow, Sidney Kenneth Johnson, Sr. became involved in the movie industry and apparently did well. He supposedly visited relatives in Louisiana and Texas in a chauffeured, white Packard. In any case, his children were all involved in movies as actors and actresses. Here is some data about their entertainment careers.
