The family of Johnson in JOHNSON the early days of New Eng- land contained many dis- tinguished representatives, and not least among them was Captain Edward Johnson, of Woburn, Middlesex county, Massachu- setts, the progenitor of the so-called Woburn family of Johnson. He enjoyed the distinc- tion of being the first general historian of New England. His descendants as a whole have been numerous. They were mostly tillers of the soil, Indian fighters on occasion, and were largely represented in the Revolu- tionary war; some have been members of congress and judges of courts, and many of the family have been notable for their longev- ity. The progenitor himself was not only the author of the earliest printed history of New England, called the "Wonder-Working Providence," but also the first military of- ficer commissioned in his adopted town, and its first town clerk. He was also the explorer of undiscovered wilds in New England. He represented his town twenty-eight years in the general court, and for a short time was speaker. Several attempts in the last hun- dred years have been made to write his bio- graphy, the last being made in 1905.
Captain Edward (I) Johnson, of Woburn, Massachusetts, the author of the celebrated history of New England called "The Won- der-Working Providence," was the son of William Johnson, of Canterbury, county Kent, England, where Edward was baptized September 16 or 17, 1598. He died in Wo- burn, Massachusetts, April 23, 1672. Edward was a man of much influence in the colony at large, and no citizen was better known. He was active in founding the First Church of Woburn. His history received the commen- dation and appreciation of his contempor- aries, and his writings are remarkable as an example of the Puritan style. He married Susan (or Susanna) -, died March 7, 1689-90.
(II) William Johnson, son of Edward (I) and Susan or Suanna Johnson, was born in Canterbury, England, and was baptized there March 22, 1628-29. He came to this country with his father's family in the general immi- gration to New England, became a promin- ent citizen of Woburn, and was its second recorder, or town clerk. He attained to high
civil office, was one of the assistants of the colony, and a military officer of several ranks, from ensign to major, and was at one time in active command against the Indians. He was one of the resistants of the aggressive policy pursued by Governor Andros. He died at Woburn, May 22, 1704. He married, at Woburn, May 16, 1655, Esther, died De- cember 27, 1707, daughter of Elder Thomas Wiswall, of Dorchester and Newton. They left a family of children, whose descendants have been for a long period prominent in the civil and military life of Woburn.
(III) Edward Johnson, son of William (2) and Esther (Wiswall) Johnson, was born in Woburn, March 19, 1658, and died there August 7, 1725. He was a deacon in the church. He was ensign, lieutenant and cap- tain of a Woburn military company, 1693 to 1724, was in active service against the In- dians in the winter of 1704, and commanded his company at that period. He was twice married: His first wife Sarah died May 31, 1804, daughter of Samuel and Sarah (Reed) Walker. He was the father of ten children.
(IV) Samuel Johnson, son of Edward (3) and Sarah (Walker) Johnson, was born Feb- ruary 21, 1696, and died in 1764. He was married four times, and had five children by his first three wives. His first wife was Mary, daughter of William and Rebecca Butters.
(V) Reuben Johnson, son of Samuel (4) and Mary (Butters) Johnson, was born in Woburn, May 12, 1727. He served in the army at Lake George during two terms of service in that war, and died in 1760 or 1761. He married Sarah Johnson, of Woburn, died in Burlington, Massachusetts, April 12, 1809, at the age of eighty years, daughter of Eben- ezer (4) and Sarah (Stearns) Johnson, of Wo- burn. Her father served in the Crown Point expedition against the French and Indians in 1756, and died about November 3, that year, while in the service.

(VIII) John Johnson, Jr., eldest child of John (7) and Sarah (Kendall) Johnson, was born in Woburn, February 12, 1814, and died there December 7, 1902, aged eighty-eight years. He was apprenticed in 1833 as a wheelwright to his uncle, Isaac Hall, with whom he spent several years in the town of West Cambridge, now known as Arlington, Massachusetts. He worked at his trade after- ward for Oliver Parker, of Woburn West Side, and in 1839 built a shop and excavated a millpond in Cummingsville, Woburn, and began business for himself. He pursued his trade there, with farming to a more or less extent, until 1854, when he was elected treas- urer of the Woburn Agricultural and Me- chanics' Association, and held the position until the association went out of existence. He was an original stockholder of the State Bank, predecessor of the First National Bank of Woburn, of which latter institution he was a director for many years, vice-president from 1874 to - -- , and president from 1891 to 1900, his active association with local bank- ing thus covering the long period of a half century. He was town auditor from 1847 to 1876, a selectman and assessor, and for seventeen years a member of the school com- mittee. As one of the executors of the will of Charles Bowers Winn, he had a part in the erection of the Woburn Public Library build- ing given by Mr. Winn. Mr. Johnson had an affection for things which are called anti- quarian, and collected a large amount of in- formation relating to the early history of the Johnson family. He had a definite idea of where the early settlers of Woburn lived, and delighted in reminiscences of the men of the past. He had a reputation for integrity and fairness in financial affairs which was never questioned. In his earliest life he was denied the privileges of a liberal education, which he desired, and entered trade instead, in which he was highly successful. He was twice married, his second wife being Julia Ann Bulfinch, died May 1, 1903, aged seventy-seven years, having survived her husband but a few months. She was a daugh- ter of Amos B. and Hannah (Coombs) Bul- finch. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were the par- ents of two sons and one daughter: Rosella Maria, John Warren and Edward Francis Johnson.

He prepared for col- lege and graduated at Harvard in 1878. He then studied law, traveled in Europe, entered the Harvard Law School in 1879, and was a .student there for two years. He was admit- ted to the Suffolk bar in 1881; in 1882 attained his degree of LL. B. from the Har- vard Law School, and was appointed clerk of the fourth district court of eastern Middlesex, a position he held until 1888. He practiced law, first in Boston and Woburn, but after 1883 in Woburn only. In 1887 and again in 1888 he was elected town treasurer of Woburn. He served as Wo- burn's first mayor upon its incorporation as a city in 1889, and again in 1890. In 1891 he was appointed justice of the fourth district court of eastern Middlesex. In 1894 he was elected a member of the Massachusetts His- torical Society, and in 1899 president of the Rumford Historical Association. He is also a member of the American Antiquarian So- ciety, the Colonial Society of Massachusetts, and the New England Historical Genealogi- cal Society. He inherited from his father a fondness for genealogical matters, and edited for publication "The Woburn Record of Births, Deaths, and Marriages," published by the city of Woburn, the series now reaching its seventh volume (1906). This work was arranged on a plan which has been used as a model by many others. Mr. Johnson is also the author of a genealogy of the Johnson family entitled, "Captain Edward Johnson of Woburn, Massachusetts, and some of his De- scendants" (Boston, 1905).
He married, September 26, 1882, Mary Elizabeth Simonds, daughter of Edward and Mary (Tidd) Simonds, of Woburn. Their children were: Harold Pendexter, born No- vember 10, 1883; Kenneth Simonds, Febru- ary 12, 1885, and Eleanor, June 28, 1900.

wife are both buried in the Park Street ceme- tery, Boston.
John Greenleaf Cole, son of James and Har- riet (Wakefield) Cole, was born in Boston, March I, 1817. He received his instruction in the elementary branches of school training in the public schools of Boston, as they existed at that time, and in 1832 was apprenticed to Cole & Snow, the senior member of the firm being his brother, James Madison Cole, to learn the printer's trade. When his brother was drowned, he continued his apprenticeship with Mr. Snow, who continued the business in Boston, and when his term of apprentice- ship expired in 1839 he removed to Woburn with Mr. Snow, and they formed a partner- ship to carry on the painting business in that town as Snow & Cole, and when Mr. Snow died Mr. Cole continued the business up to the time of his death, April 25, 1873, and accumu- lated a considerable property in Woburn. He was accustomed to taking trips for observation and pleasure, and these generally extended to the southern states. In 1849 he was one of the pioneer gold seekers who went from Wo- burn to California, they making the trip by sailing vessel around Cape Horn. He made a fortune in the mines, but on his return home by ship he lost most of his gold during a storm at sea. His life in California had undermined his health, and the years' absence had made many changes in the business he had left in the hands of others. It was several months before he could regain his strength sufficiently to take up the painting business which, how- ever, by his determination and industry was soon as profitable as he could wish, and the following twenty-two years were years of re- markable prosperity. He was a man of quiet habits, and much respected by the people of his community. He was a member of the Orthodox Congregational Church of Woburn, and his political faith was represented by the Democratic party of which he was an active member. His fraternal affiliation was mem- bership in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He took a part in military life as a member of the state militia both in Boston and Woburn.
He was married April 30, 1840, to Lavina B., daughter of William and Lavina (Wilk- ins) Brookes, of New Ipswich, New Hamp- shire, Lavina B. having been born on her father's farm in that town, July 28, 1820.

plantation, unmarried, February 12, 1904. 2. John William, born August 19, 1845, died August 15, 1848. 3. Mary Elmira, born January 13, 1849, married, September 3, 1873, Henry L. Andrews, of Woburn, and had one child, John Cole Andrews, born February 28, 1875, who became a printer in Woburn. 4. Annie Lavina, born January 8, 1853, married, July 21, 1871, Edwin K.

Abraham Bryant was the im- BRYANT migrant ancestor of the Bryant family of Reading, Stoneham and vicinity, in Massachusetts. No connection has been established between him and the other immigrants of this sur- name. He was doubtless born in England, 1647, where the name Bryant is traced back to Sir Guy de Briant, who lived in the reign of Edward III and whose descendants had a seat in Castle Hereford, Wales. The arms of the English family are : Three Piles meeting near in the base of the escutcheon, azure. Abraham Bryant's home was in Reading, now Wakefield, Massachusetts, on the south side of Elm street, west of the place of Joseph Hartshorn.
