Dear Sandy Mae, Would you have any further information on the first Johnson family? I am interested in more info on Thomas Johnson (m. Ann Sarsby) family. I'm sure this is the family where son Robert married Elizabeth Woodhouse. BTW I believe it should read "works on swine ground"

Hi i'm a direct descendant of Thomas Johnson, it was his son Robert that married Elizabeth, what connection do you have to the family maybe we could help each other out

I'm looking for Edward Johnson, who we think came from Sheringham, born in 1839, worked on the North sea trawler The Fly. The “Fly” was purchased by Thomas Roderique who sailed to New Zealand with his family and Charles Brett as Captain and Ned Johnson as crew, at this time he was 18 years of age.

Ned went on to build many boats at Stewart Island, New Zealand and was a very good fisherman,so may have come from a boat building family?
We still have in the family one of his boats, built in 1888.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards, Sandymae

This is one of my ancestors, can I ask why you are looking for him? Maybe we can help each other out
