  • Notes 
    • John and Emma lived for a short time in Salem, Illinois, and then returned to Nashville, where he in partnership with Henry Paul, opened a hardward store sometime before 1900. In 1908, Mr. Paul sold his interest to Frank Gewe and went West for his health. John was one of the original owners of the Hohman Building, which was built in 1913 adn occupied by three Hohman brothers - John; William and Edward. When Edward left Nashville to move to Chicago, his interest in the building was purchased by Dr. George Green, his brother-in-law (husband of Clara Hohman). He occupied on of the upstairs offices until he died. The only remaining member of the Hohman family to occupy the building since the death in 1965 of Howard Hohman is Dr. Edgar Reinhardt, son-in-law of Dr. Green, who, until the building was sold in April of 1971 to Donald Williamson, was part owner.
      John died in a Mt. Vernon hospital, unexpectedly, following surgery and while seemingly making a good recovery.
