does not seem likely that «b»Matthias St. John«/b» was connected with the families of the nobility or gentry. Perhaps he was of Huguenot origin. A great many of these French protestants fled to England and engaged in various trades to support themselves. "St. John" is a very common parish name in France, and would probably sound like Sension. Perhaps he was descended from servants of one of the above gentry families, and his ancestors took the name of their masters. This is what happened with many freed slaves in the South, and the same process in England led to servitors having noble surnames.
There is not a Windsor in Fairfield county, Connecticut; but there is a Windsor, Hartford, Connecticut, USA
