It seems odd that John would specify his wife was the widow of Benjamin Johnson 40 plus years after their marriage. The daughter Susan Lynch, named in his will, has an existing stone in Lynch Cemetery. I see no source for her 22 April 1771 birth and will attempt to find that, and his alleged 25 Feb 1771 marriage record, because those two dates make no sense. Ancestry link to his will for now.
