Hailing from the County of Kentucky,\u00a0Richard Johnson<\/b>\u00a0was a Representative and Senator from Kentucky, and also in the\u00a0Kentucky House of Representatives<\/b>. Johnson was in the\u00a0Kentucky House of Representatives\u00a0<\/b>from 1804-1806 and again was elected in 1819. Johnson was re-elected to the\u00a0Kentucky House of Representatives<\/b>\u00a0in 1850, but since he died in Frankfort this tenure was left incomplete.<\/p>\n

Crittenden in 1819, but was re-elected to the position for a full term in 1823 where he stayed from December 10, 1819 to March 4, 1829.
