Edward Johnson (jenerali)

Edward "Allegheny" Johnson (Aprili 16, 1816 – Machi 2, 1873) alikuwa afisa wa Jeshi la Marekani na jenerali wa Muungano wa Kusini katika Vita vya wenyewe vya Marekani. Alithaminiwa sana na Robert E. Lee, na aliteuliwa kuwa kamanda wa kitengo chini ya Richard S. Ewell. Katika jioni ya kwanza ya Vita vya Gettysburg (Julai 1, 1863), Ewell alipoteza nafasi yake ya kushambulia Cemetery Hill, na Johnson aliamua kutoshambulia Culp's Hill, ingawa alikuwa na agizo la hiari kufanya hivyo, ingawa alijaribu kufanya hivyo katika siku ya pili na ya tatu. Ewell na Johnson wanalaumiwa na wengi kwa kushindwa kwa vita hivi muhimu.
