Thaddeus Johnson

Thad Johnson and his wife, Virginia, donated a 92-acre conservation easement on their property in Sutton Mills to Ausbon Sargent in August, 2008. Thad died just over a year later, on November 25, 2009.  The Johnson conservation easement, now owned by Nate Byfield, protects 92 acres of woodlands with frontage on three public roads and expands a corridor of conserved properties from the southeastern side of Kezar Lake southward to Sutton Mills. Additionally, the easement has miles of hiking trails created by Thad Johnson over a 10-year period with a used dozer he bought for this purpose.
