John Wilkinson (November 13, 1758 – 1802) was born in Rhode Island, United States. He was a direct descendant of Lawrence Wilkinson who fled the oppression of Oliver Cromwell in 1652 and settled in America[2] and the son of Roger Wilkinson, an early colonist, who settled in Rhode Island where Roger Williams promoted the concept of freedom of religion.[clarification needed][1]
John Wilkinson settled in Troy, New York and seventeen years later moved his family to Skaneateles, New York.
