Note 264 — Chapter V · THE ECONOMIC INTERESTS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE CONVENTION

Ibid., New York Loan Office, 6% Ledger, 1791–1797, folio 161; ibid., New York Office, Deferred 6%, 1790–1796, folio 107—two entries of about $25,000 each. Ledger B, New York Office, Deferred 6% Stock, 1790, folios, 152, 457. Ledger E, Treasury, 3%, Vol. 44, folio 529. There can be no question of the identity of the Robert Charles Johnson who appears on the public security records and the Robert Charles Johnson who was the son of William Samuel. The cross entries between father and son in the records constitute one piece of evidence. The residence of Robert Charles in Stratford presents another, for that was the family place. Furthermore, the signature to the Loan Office Receipts is the signature of Robert Charles, son of William Samuel Johnson.
