Group Members & Detailed Lines of Descent

Early Virginia

Benjamin Johnson and his wife Margarey along with John Johnson and his wife Elizabeth (Massie?) all first appeared in the Henrico Monthly Meeting in 1721/1722. They were neighbors and their family members attended the marriages and other events for the other family. It is likely that they were either siblings or very close cousins.

Looking for other direct male descendants especially from Benjamin to try and determine the connection.
