This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Johnson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JRB.2ACE/1525 Message Board Post: I am researching the JOHNSON surname in Schenectady and Seneca County NY. As Johnson is such a difficult name to research, I have set up a new Johnson-NY website and corresponding mailing list . I am hoping that narrowing our research down to NY, might help break down some of these brick-walls. Queries can be posted on the Johnson-NY website located at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~johnsonnewyork/index.htm
