Samuel Johnson is NOT the Father of Thomas Johnson. Our line of Johnsons are Haplogroup R-BY76093. Samuel Johnson's Y DNA as tested by relations is in Haplogroup 'I'. His alleged father Michael Johnson is a YDNA confirmed Johnston of Caskieben Scotland. The FTDNA JJJ project site has their info and they are not match. Secondly, Thomas Johnson's name is Thomas Johnson we have documents signed by him and he always signed his name Thomas Johnson and yes, he could write. He was a blacksmith. Thank you. M
