Biography
Hannah Johnson was born on April 27 1656 in Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts Bay Colony and died on June 16 1720, in Sudbury, Province of Massachusetts Bay.
There were two Hannah Johnsons who were born about the same time. Hannah-2 was born in September 1656 in Rowley Mass to John Johnson and Hannah (possibly Crosby) and died in Jan 1720. Hannah-2 married Thomas Palmer. The similarities between the two Hannahs can be a source of mis-attribution of vital information.
Our Hannah married George(1) Parmenter on January 20, 1678 in Sudbury, Mass and had at least 8 children.
Hannah is the daughter of Solomon John Johnson and Hannah Holman, who married in 1653. Solomon's 2nd wife was also named Hannah (sometimes taken as Craft or Hanna Brigham). Most FamilySearch trees have it as Hannah Holman (though that doesn't really mean very much).

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hannah by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Hannah:
I found subsequent sources that disprove that Gershom Eames married Hannah Johnson. "The Sudbury records show the birth of a Hannah, daughter of Solomon Johnson (who was Solomon, Jr.), but she would have been only 14 years old when Gershom Eames married Hannah Brigham." Additional evidence proves that the only wife of Gershom Eames was Hannah Brigham-128. I am therefore detaching Hannah Johnson as spouse of Gershom Eames and mother of his children.
