Notes

John 2 Landon was in Farmington, CT land records in 1650 and was a representative of the general court 1668-1683. He died in 1689 in Farmington, CT where he had married #2 Mary Seymour, widow of Thomas Gridley and daughter of Richard Seymour and Mary Raleigh. His known children by his first wife were: Elizabeth, Samuel, John Jr.(3) and Joseph. However, relatives stated in JOL that John had many children.

The will found by Walter Winans in Salmon Records (Jan 93, p16) fits in here with John 2's children, showing that his son Joseph had the following children: Elizabeth, Letitia, Jerusha, Abigail, Hannah, John, Amos, Ananias, and Joseph. The will confirms only brother Samuel and a Samuel son of a deceased John. David Landon, a supposed brother or son of John d. Jan 21, 1725 in New Bedford, NH. There could be two Johns in America of approximately the same age, as the immigrant David and his immigrant brothers are not listed descendants in this lineage.
