p. 122...by 1669, Clas Johansson had been succeeded by 
his 2 sons, Peter and John Clason.  John moved to the 
area of present Philadelphia, where he left 3 sons 
named Johnsson.  Peter Classon, as the eldest son, 
received the first English patent for Mill Dorp dated 
25 NOv 1669.  In 1677 he is shown to have 2 sons of 
tydable age (16 or 16+).  His 2 sons were Peter and 
Jacob, who retained their father's patronymic as their
