Is this the same Johnson who sent me this e-mail on latest FTDNA results? From: Richard Johnson [mailto:rj47@frontier.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 29, 2012 11:16 PM To: wetzupdoc@me.com Subject: FTDNA Family Finder match Hello, A bit of a puzzle. I am a descendant of Christina Wetzel who married Nicholas Woolf (var. spellings). I believe they were in Frederick Co., Maryland. Their daughter Margaret Woolf born about 1766 married John Westfall. That probably happened in the area that would become Harrison Co., Virginia and later would be part of West Virginia. Their son Stephen Westfall married Elizabeth 'Betsy' Morrison, 18 Jul 1818, in what was then Mason Co., Virginia. That area became part of Jackson Co., (West) Virginia in 1831. Their daughter, Jemima Westfall, married Chester S. Tenney on 2 March 1856 in Jackson Co., West Virginia. Chester died at the Battle of Cloyd's Mountain/Farm in May of 1864. Their daughter Elizabeth Ellen Tenney was my great grandmother. She had my grandfather by a Shamblin and then married William Henry Riffle 22 Nov 1888 in Jackson Co., West Virginia. She appears to have died between 1896 and 1900. I've never found a grave or death record for her. All that said there must be a much more recent relationship to explain the strength of our match. Hope to hear from you, Richard Johnson

Among the people who came to Plymouth in 1630 were two brothers, John and Stephen Kingsley, who came from Hampshire, England. In 1635, John Kingsley left Plymouth and moved north to Dorchester in the developing Boston area with a friend of Cotton Mather. He was followed by Stephen who by 1640 was the owner of a valuable property in the Braintree area. There he became a Court Deputy in Braintree and Milton from 1650 to 1666 and was also trustee of estates until his death in 1673. His family was to go on to found several towns in the Connecticut area.
John, along with seven others was a pillar of a new church founded on August 23, 1636 and was among the last survivors.
John Kingsley acquired the first grant of land in Taunton, MA area in 1645 and relocated there. The next year he became a shareholder in Great Lots (?). Three years later he moved to Rehoboth in Bristol County, MA.
The area around Rehoboth would eventually witness "King Philip's War".
The first generation of settlers who had worked out an uneasy alliance with Massasoit, chief of the Wampanoag Indians, were now replaced by people who wanted to expand their opportunities for development. The culture of the Indians differed greatly to that of the settlers in regards to the use of the land. A continuing problem was the trampling of Native cornfields by the colonists' livestock. While the colonists were legally responsible for the damage, such laws were difficult to enforce in remote areas such as Rehoboth and Taunton. Increased competition for these resources of land for planting, hunting and fishing caused much friction between the two groups.
In 1662, in an arrogant attempt to exert control, the Plymouth Court summoned Wampanoag leader, Wamsutta, son of Massasoit, to Plymouth. Major Josiah Winslow, with a small force of men, took Wamsutta at gunpoint. Soon after questioning, Wamsutta became ill and died. His death greatly angered the Wampanoag.
Wamsutta's brother, Metacom (also called Philip) succeeded him. Plymouth's continued unyielding policy toward Native leaders, as well as the events surrounding the murder of Sassamon, a liaison between the two groups, caused the breakdown in relations that led to war.
In 1675, hostilities broke out in the town of Swansea, and the war spread as far north as New Hampshire, and as far southwest as Connecticut. Not all the native peoples, however, sided with Philip. Most natives who had converted to Christianity fought with the English or remained neutral. The English, however, did not always trust these converts and interned many of them in camps or outlying islands.
Native soldiers fighting on the side of the colonists helped turn the tide of the war, which ended in 1676 when Philip was killed by a Wampanoag fighting with Captain Benjamin Church in the Great Swamp of southern Rhode Island.
The strain connected with the difficult relationships with the Indians over almost a thirty year period ending with the death of Philip caused John's health to suffer and he asked for relief in that year. He moved to Bristol, Rhode Island and died in 1678.

Plymouth Colony History and People:
Chapter Two: One of the Mayflower passengers, John Billington, was found guilty of wilful murder of a recent settler, appropriately named John Newcomen, and Bradford's government was not sure what the penalty should be. They consulted Governor Winthrop and other Bay Colony leaders. Perhaps Bradford was just being cautious, for fear of possibly looking too revengeful, since Billington, by his rebellious behavior over the years, had long made himself obnoxious to them, and thus they asked for concurrence of their new neighbor for the death penalty. The Bay Colony advised that Billington ought to die and the land be purged of blood, and Billington was hanged in September 1630.
Footnote: Bradford (Ford), 2:110-12, 136-40. There are but few details available on the Billington case, but we learn a bit more from William Hubbard, A General History of New England from the Discovery to MDCLXXX (Cambridge, 1815, 101, "About September, 1630, was one Billington executed at Plymouth for murther.…[Billington] maliciously slew his neighbour in the field, as he accidentally met him, as himself was going to shoot deer. The poor fellow, perceiving the intent of this Billington, his mortal enemy, sheltered himself behind trees as well as he could for a while; but the other not being so ill a marksman as to miss his aim, made a shot at him, and struck him on the shoulder, with which he died soon after. The murtherer expected that either for want of power to execute for capital offenses, or for want of people to increase the plantation, he should have his life spared; but justice otherwise determined." Though Hubbard's book was not published until 1815, he wrote it in the second half of the seventeenth century, and thus was contemporary with some people who would have remembered the Billington affair first hand. On the other hand, Thomas Morton, no friend to the Plymouth leaders, asserted in his whimsically written satire, New English Canaan (1637), 216, that "Auld Woodman," that is, Billington, "was choaked at Plimmoth after hee had played the unhappy Markes Man when hee was pursued by a carelesse fellow that was new come [a punning reference to John Newcomen] into the land," and he referred to Billington as "beloved of Many."[:CR:}

JOHN BILLINGTON
BRADFORD states that John Billington came from London, but none of the existing parish registers furnish confirmatory evidence. A Lawrence Billington of St. Botolph's, Aldgate, died in 1590 (Arch. London, Act. Book 2/46a). There were Billingtons living in the parish of St. Mildred, Bread St., coopers, in 1640 (P. R. O. Subsidy 251/22), and in the Tithe Report of London Householders in 1638 a "Widow" Billington is listed as a tenant in the parish of All Hallows, Stayning (Lambeth MSS. Codex 272).

Memoirs of Leonard, Thompson, Haskell, pp 212-213:
John Billington, born [apparently shoud read died] 1630, Mayflower Pilgrim, the 26th signer of the Mayflower Compact, the ancestor of Lydia Wood, who was the grandmother of our Grandfather Isaac, has been called Billington, the Martyr. He was hung for the alleged murder of John Newcomen, who was interfering with Billington's hunting and hid behind a tree. Billington shot probably to frighten him, but hit his shoulder, and the wound proved fatal for lack of scientific care. Billington's offense would now be passed over as accidental, or as homicide by misdirection. It is claimed that the accuser of Billington was his undisguised enemy and that what was put into the records was from this poisoned source. The Plymouth Court did not know what to do with Billington, who said with truth that the colony could not afford to lose a strong industrious worker. The case was referred to the Massachusetts Bay Court, which returned its verdict that "Billington should die and the land be purged from blood;" accordingly the Plymouth officials carried out the dread sentence, although doubtless with heavy hearts. This was the first execution in Plymouth Colony. Thomas Morton says of Billington, "He was beloved by many," and it should not be forgotten that this signer of the Mayflower Compact, over whose memory a cloud has hung for three hundred years, shared in the terrors of that first winter of the historic little Republic, which has set the pace for our country's development, and in all its early sacrifices, it has never been said of him that he was a coward or laggard. He was one of the seven well persons who tended the sick with the utmost faithfulness and kindness at that darkest point of the Colony's history, "performing duties which dainty and queasy stomachs cannot endure to hear named!" Posterity already doubts the wisdom of those who sent him to a felon's grave.
Annie Arnoux Haxtun comments as follows on Billington's fate, "The colonists were never without arms. Intuitively they sought them for every obstruction. There was the same wearing of arms on Newcomen's part and he might have fired the first shot as well as John Billington. I can but feel that his suffering the death penalty was the effect of the times. It is easy to imagine in the light of the present day a more lenient sentence."

Plymouth Colony: Its History and People 1620-1691, Part Three: Biographical Sketches
One of the non-Separatists on the 1620 Mayflower, John Billington increasingly got into trouble with the Plymouth leaders. In 1621 he was tried before the whole company for disobeying a lawful command of Capt. Myles Standish, and was sentenced to have his neck and heels tied together, but on humbling himself and craving pardon, and it being his first offence, he was forgiven (Bradford [Ford] 2:112 fn). In 1624 John Lyford named him as one of his supporters, but Billington denied it. In 1625 Bradford wrote to Robert Cushman, "Billington still rails against you, and threatens to arrest you, I know not wherefore; he is a knave, and so will live and die" (Bradford, Letter Book, p. 13). In September 1630 Billington was hanged for murdering John Newcomen. His wife was Eleanor or Ellen, and he arrived with her and their two sons, John and Francis. NEHGR 124:116 gives good evidence that his family probably came from around Spaulding, Lincolnshire. The most comprehensive study of his descendants is Robert S. Wakefield, "Some Descendants of Francis2 Billington of the Mayflower," TG 3:228-48. See also Harriet W. Hodge, "Desire Billington and Her Grandfather Francis Billington's Estate," MQ 52:137

Mems of Leonard, Thompson, Haskell, p 214:
Francis Billington, 1608-1684, soon after his landing from the Mayflower, saw from the top of a tall tree a large sheet of water which he thought was the sea, and so reported it. On January 8, 1621, one of the master-mates of the Mayflower took a musket and went with Francis to find the sea he had discovered, which is now called Billington Sea and consists of two beautiful fresh water lakes near Plymouth. Some contend that the mate would not have gone with Francis alone, who was a mere boy, and that probably the father, John, went along. In 1634, Francis, then twenty-six years old, married Christian Penn Eaton and the pair had eight children, most of whom they were obliged to "bind out;" their financial struggle doubtless increased by the ostracism and infamy surrounding the family. One son, Joseph, was placed with John Cooke, and on account of frequent absences at which his parents were supposed to have connived, the court ordered that in case of future truancies both parents should sit in the stocks on lecture days. In later life we find Francis serving on committees and boards of reference which suggest that he had redeemed his standing in the community and Goodwin who speaks coldly of the Billingtons yet has the justice to add that "some of their descendants became worthy members of society." Francis left land to his daughter Martha, who married first, Samuel Eaton, and second, Robert Crossman, of a prominent family.
There are few people in America today by the name of Billington. The daughters of this family changed their names--gladly probably--by marriage. The sons, it would seem, changed their names purposely, perhaps, to Billings, and so the family put their infamy as far away as possible. However on this as on so many other sad stories of the past, history has reconstructed its verdict which now reads, "Society is the Real Criminal."

Plymouth Colony: Its History and People 1620-1691, Part Three: Biographical Sketches:
The son of John and Eleanor Billington, Francis accompanied his parents on the 1620 Mayflower. See the three articles under his father for his probable English origin and his American descendants. When the Mayflower was anchored at Cape Cod, "one of Francis [sic, should be John] Billingtons Sonnes [presumably son Francis], who in his Fathers absence, had got Gun-powder, and had shot of a peice or two, and made scuibs, and there being a fowling peice charged in his fathers Cabbin, shot her off in the Cabbin, there being a little barrell of powder halfe full, scattered in and about the Cabbin, the fire being within foure foote of the bed betweene the Deckes, and many flints and Iron things about the Cabbin, and many people about the fire, and yet by Gods mercy no harme done" (Mourt's Relation, p. 15). The same source, p. 26, relates how Francis Billington climbed a tree and saw what appeared to be a great sea, but on close inspection it turned out to be a very shallow pond, which is called to this day the Billington Sea. He married widow of Francis Eaton Christian (Penn), in July 1634 (PCR 1:31)

In 1850 census Eve's maiden name is spelled Wiederich which should be correct based on its pronunciation with a long 'e' in the first syllable. However, by the 1880 census and the deaths of her brother and his male children, the name is consistently spelled Weidrich.
