Adamantine Johnson contributed much to Chariton County history.
He was born in Lincoln County, Kentucky on 17 May 1824. In 1835, his parents and family moved to Howard County, Missouri, in a part that was later incorporated into Chariton County. In 1848, Adamantine married Pocahontas Rebecca Cabell (a direct descendant of Pocahontas). They had eight children.
In 1856, he was the first president of the first bank started in Brunswick. He was the first elder of the First Christian Church in Brunswick. According to the 1860 Slave Roll, he owned 7 slaves.
Adamantine Johnson and Thomas E. Gilliam were the first manufacturers of chewing tobacco. In 1868, he was the land dealer who sold Charles Ingall and Henry Quiner (Laura Ingalls Wilder's father and uncle) 80 acres of land each in Chariton County for $900 each just a few miles from his farm near Rothville. He was a major stockholder and on the first board of directors for two railroad lines being built during the 1860's and 1870's (Chariton and Randolph Railroad Company and Chillicothe and Brunswick Railroad Company).
In 1868, he built a brick federal-style home for his family on a large farm (1000+ acres) he purchased in Chariton County near Rothville, Missouri. It was completed around 1872. The following is an excerpt from a local history book:
The Adamantine Johnson house was better known in the area as the Charles Waugh home. Mr. Johnson was a successful business man who accumulated property and wealth very rapidly through merchandising, farming, stock raising, and tobacco farming. he owned several large farms near Brunswick. About 1868, he moved to rural Rothville where he built the two story house, the showplace of the community at a cost of $7000.
