About: William Johnson was an influential landowner in New York’s Mohawk Valley during the mid-to-late eighteenth century. His genius in dealing and trading with the Indians had a lasting impact on their relationship with the English, and influenced England's victory in the struggle for control of North America. Johnson was also the largest slave holder in the colony of New York during this period. Site managers are currently working to restore the 18th century stone house and plan to use the space to provide programs interpreting slavery at Johnson Hall.
