Well, The reason I asked is that Mary, the wife of John Rose, was first married to John Johnson (d. 1688). Johnson, John,St, Mary's Co. 10th Apr., 1687; 9th Dec., 1687. To eld. son John at majority, 100 A., Westham, bought of Edward Barber, son of Luke Barber. To dau. Mary, son James, and to younger dau. Sarah, personalty. Wife Mary, extx. and residnary legatee of personal estate. Test: Jno. Vaudry, Robt, Frayzer, Thos. Edwards. 4. 282. John Johnson 10.185 A SM £98.9.7 Sep 27 1688 The amount of the inventory also included #4202. Payments to: Capt. Pile, John Blomfeild. Executrix: Mary Rose, wife of John Rose. Then there was a guy named Fobbe Roberts (d. 1692) Roberts, Fobbe,St. Mary's Co.,10th June, 1692; 22nd Oct., 1692. To niece Ellinor Courtney and hrs., ½ of estate. To neph. John Johnson and hrs., residue of estate. Ex. not given. Test: Thos. Wyane, Jno. Baker. 6. 4. MARYLAND CALENDAR OF WILLS: Volume 2 So, if he was the uncle of John Johnson, then Mary would be his sister, thus the wife of John Johnson (d. 1688) was Mary Roberts who married secondly, John Rose. Having said this, there were many John Johnsons arround at the time and I just have nerver really investigated them to make sure this was right which is why I asked the question. And of course, there is a relationship beteween these Johnsons and the Clarkes, in paticular Leonard Clarke.
