Isaac "Ike" Peebles Johnson and Nora Ann Strebeck were married on 26 Oct 1913 in Newton Co., Mississippi, USA. Their family moved to Artesia/Cottonwood, New Mexico in 1924 because of lung damage Ike encountered as a result of the influenza epidemic of 1918.

Nora died 21 Mar 1966 and Ike died 6 Dec 1974, both in Artesia, New Mexico, USA.

The Johnson family history is documented in The Johnson Family Record. The Strebeck family history is documented in the Strebeck Family Record.
