Famous nationally for its pool halls Minnesota Fats and hustlers but this gives a broader look at the town. This work is not intended to be a formal history of Johnson City. It is however a fascinating collection of early stories and news items having both historical and human interest value. Some of the material in this book had previously appears in the periodical The Johnson City Progress. Johnston City is a city in Williamson County south central Illinois United States. The population was 3543 at the 2010 census. This was a center of coal mining in the early 20th century having a peak of population in 1920. The mining jobs attracted many immigrants from Europe. The eastern part of the city was originally known as Jeffersonville. It was surveyed in 1853. During the American Civil War it was a properous village. The post office was established in 1852 under the name Lake Creek. It was moved to Johnston City in 1903 but it was not until several years after that that Jeffersonville was fully amalgamated into Johnston City. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries a number of immigrant miners from Italy Wales and other areas arrived to work in the coal mines. There were tensions among the different ethnic groups especially when miners went out on strike for better wages and conditions. With the decline of mining the number of jobs fell. By 1940 the city's population was just under 4000. For 2015 the US Census estimated the population at 3500. In the 1960s a decline in coal miners occurred due to safety standards in the coal mines.
