A descendant of the [O'Neill dynasty](https://bliptext.com/articles/o-neill-dynasty), his family name was originally MacShane ([Irish](https://bliptext.com/articles/irish-language): Mac Seáin), of which Johnson is a translation. The baronetcy was awarded for his victories at [Crown Point](https://bliptext.com/articles/crown-point-new-york) and the [Battle of Lake George](https://bliptext.com/articles/battle-of-lake-george) earlier that year. # [Sir William Johnson, 1st Baronet, of New York | upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/18/Sir///William///Johnson.jpg] ## Johnson baronets of New York The heir apparent is Colpoys William Johnson (born 1993).
