7388 Capt. John JOHNSON. Born abt 1588 in England. Died on 30 Sep 1659 in Roxbury, Suffolk Co., MA.

Research: One major source of information on the Johnson line is the Genealogy of Captain John Johnson of Roxbury, Massachusetts, by Paul Franklin Johnson and edited by Ada Johnson Modern, 1951. This work includes additional materials from various records, and data on over 6000 descendants to 14 generations from Capt. John and Margery Johnson. For an excellent comprehensive biography of Capt. Johnson, refer to The Biography and Genealogy of Captain John Johnson from Roxbury, Massachusetts, by Gerald Garth Johnson (2000, Heritage Books, Inc., Bowie, MD), available from the publisher.

The JOHNSON ancestry is not known. Among various conjectures is that he was the son of John JOHNSON of Co. Kent, England. However, refer to the volume noted above by Gerald Garth Johnson (pages 61-97) for a detailed analysis of the various conjectures, leading to the conclusion that Capt. John JOHNSON's "ancestry remains a mystery." The sometimes claim that Capt. John JOHNSON's second wife was possibly Margery SCUDDER, daughter of William (d. 1607) and Margery SCUDDER of Darenth, Kent, is based only on the will of William SCUDDER, dated July 27,1607, and probated November 4, 1607, naming John JOHNSON, Sr., John JOHNSON, Jr. and daughter Margaret. No known record supports the claim that the daughter of William and Margery SCUDDER married John JOHNSON, and her widowed mother's will of 1926 does not mention her, suggesting her prior death. It is to be noted that John JOHNSON lived in England 12 miles north of London, whereas Darenth, Kent is a few miles southeast of the city.
