SIR WILLIAM JOHNSON

The above is a 5!0PY of a painting in the Albany Innstitute ·of Art and shows Sir William at about the age of 35, Sir William Johruson came into the Miohawk Valley in 1738 as. Indian Agent for the British Government. His influence grew until at the close of hiis oareer he wa,s the oubstand­ ing figure in Indian affaivs for the North American continent, It i's due to his policy ,of pacification and wi,sdom in treating with the Indi,ans that settle­ ment of the valley by the whites was poS1Sible. He was a friend of Robert Flint the Pioneer. He w,as born in Ireland in 1715 ,and died at Johnson Hall in Johnstown, July 11, 1774. He died pos,se~sed of vast territories of land all of which was dissipated and oonfi'scated by his heirs who took the Royalist side during the Revolution and preyed dire,ctly on their former neighbors in the Mohawk V,alley.

THE JOHNSON FAMILY ARMS

While the Johnson Family had Arms of their own, Sir Wi!Ham John­ son when he became a baronet and a m,an of power and influence adopted a coat of arms of his own designing. The shield is red with a chevron be­ tween three fleum-de-lis, blue, three escallops of the field. Supported by two Americ,an Indians. Crest an arm holding an arrow. The red hand ,of Ulster belonging to the O'Neils also ,appears on the shield. This is ,accounted for by the claim of Warren Johnson, a brother of Sir William who filed the O'Neil arms claiming descent from the fam­ out O'Neils of Ireland. THE LINE OF CORNELIUS FLINT 65
