From discussion: https://www.geni.com/discussions/167041?msg=1143554

"This John Johnson was not the son of an Alice Johnson. He was actually the son of Robert Johnson and his 1st wife Katherine Allen d 1693. In fact, he took the inventory of the estate of John Hardy after he died in 1676, but, for some unknown reason, he did not file this inventory until Feb 1707, a few months before he died. His sister Mary Johnson was the mother of Mary JOHNSTON who married William Mayo Jr 1682-1759. Katherine Allen was a sister of Joane Allen who married Robert Burnett, and Isabel Allen who married William Mayo SR d1715, all daughters of Arthur Allen d1669 and Alice Tucker who married next to John Hardy 1613-1676.

John Johnson witnessed the signing of a power of attorney from Alice Tucker Allen Hardy in 1681 along with her son Arthur Allen Jr. to her son in law William Mayo d1715."
