Research Notes
There are three baptism listings on Scotlands People for James Johnston. ALL are for the 20th March, but one is 1780,[2] one is 1789[3] and one is changed from 1789 to 1790.[4]
Also, children named Christian, another Jane and Alexander.
During my research, I found documents relating to a complete Johnston family history, on the internet researched by other people. These people, more or less claimed every male line of this family had ceased by the 1800's.Oursoutherncousins
There is also this research which has not added any positively proven lines.Archive
If that was the case, there would be no Johnston families on the census.shortmemoir
