This was NOT the John Johnson who married Ann Gooch (Goche). There was a John Johnson who married an Ann Gooch 20 Jul 1635 in Bixley, Norfolk, England. This was apparently the John Johnson who lived in Northumberland County, Virginia, by May 1653, when he was exempted from taxes due to being lame from injuries received "in the last massacre." His son Jeffrey was given land in 1663 by his uncle Jeffrey Goche, provided he cared for his parents John and Ann Johnson. John Johnson of Jamestown died before February 1638/9 when his land was repatented in the names of his only heirs, John Johnson and Edward Travis, so he was not in Northumberland in 1653. And his son John Johnson Jr was only 12 in 1635 when John Johnson, later of Northumberland, married Ann Goche. And if he had married at age 12 in Norfolk, The Travis/Johnson land claim in 1638 would have included another 50 acres for her importation.
