  • Notes 
    • From NEHGR V66 p233 "The Solomon Johnson Family" Kimball 1912:
      "Solomon Johnson, whose parentage and ancestry have not been found, was in Sudbury, MA 3 Feb. 1639, when his twin sons, Joseph and Nathaniel, were born. His wife Elinor, who parentage and ancestry are unknown, was certainly the mother of an older son, John (Middlex Co. Deeds V20 P697, wherein Elinor calls John her son), born 1629 or 'thereabout' (deposition, Middlesex Co. Court Files, Apl. Session 1686, Stone vs Bemis). He was an original proprietor of Sudbury, having received 28 acres in the first, second and third divisions of land (Sudbury Town Records, Bk. 1, pp. 21 and 52). He was made freeman after his son Solomon took the oath in 1645. ... He was an original proprietor of Marlborough, MA, receiving a home lot of twenty-three acres, 1660 (Register V 62, p. 227). Later he received a one seventh undivided part of eleven meadows, his share in these meadows being indicated in his will, except such as were alienated by deeds, viz. in 1683 about five acres, in which he is described as 'Solomon Johnson, Sr. Tailor' ... His death is entered briefly on the Marlborough Records, 'Deacon Johnson died June 1687.' His will (Suffolk Co. Probate, v 10 p 127), dated 28 Mar. 1685, and probated 12 Oct. 1687, provides for wife 'Elenor' and son Nathaniel; and Nathaniel's three sons Joseph, Samuel, and John; mentions son Solomon, and recites giving him 'long since' his portion; also son John, having already a portion; bequeaths the remainder of his estate to his 'sonne-in-law John Barnes'; and makes his 'sonn's John Johnson, John Barnes Sear and Nathaniel Johnson executors.'"
