Hi David;
The 1782 tax lists of "Jonas Longfellow" are irrelevant.
This guy is 70 years too late to be of any interest. You need to focus about 2-3 generations earlier.
Anybody born 70-years later [than 1710] offers little interest, unless evidence is known of somebody who fits the mold [link] to earlier generations, e.g., positive link to a parent born 1715-1718. The 1782 "Jonas" doesn't fit that bill, without specific link to the earlier [1710] generations. He was 2 generations later and nobody knows where he came from [other than the Atty Hutchins affidavit, [sic]].
Thomas Longfellow of the Colonial Indian Wars fits the same bill. Too late to be relevant. Indeed, he fits into the overall picture. We already know that; but unknown is who were his parents.
