She married Elisha Johnson and had the child Peter Rawson Taft Johnson, Polly Johnson and several other children as well. Polly was b. March 13, 1797 d. March 10,1888. Polly may not have married and took care of Matilda in her older years. Matilda also married Jonathan Wilder m. Feb. 6, 1838. Most of this happened around Jamaica and Townshend, Windham Co. VT. Finding the parents of Elisha Johnson would also be great. Please email: [email protected] Thank you, David
