John Claxon came to Virginia on the ship Bona Nova in 1619. In 1621, he and
David Mansfield who came on the same ship are both listed as hired servants in
the muster roll of Georg Sandis at the Treasurors Plant in James Citty Virginia.

Political Rebels, Serving Men Sold for a Term of Years, Apprentices, Children
Stolen, Maidens Pressed, and Others Who Went from Great Britain to the American
Plantations 1600 1700, edited by John Camden Hotten, 1980, Virginia Book
Company, Berryville, Virginia.
I think he is probably the same person listed as John Clackfon in the list of
those living at Elizabeth Cittie from the Lists of the Livinge and Dead in
Virginia, Feb 16, 1623.
Source Colonial Records of Virginia, Originally Published as Senate Document -
-- Extra, Richmond, 1874, reprinted by Clearfield Company, Baltimore, MD, 1992.
(The letter f is an s as seen by other words in the same list such
as William Richardfon Ifabella, negroes and Mr. Keth, minifter)
I am not sure if this John Claxon was the ancestor of any of the other later
Claxton families of Virginia and we will probably never be able to prove it
just an interesting thought.
