This is on the web and shows Abel was a descendant from the Scotland Johnston (e) family. I will see what else I can find: In 1836 William Clarke Leech acquired 40 acres immediately west of his father's farm. John Leech had died perhaps a few months before. The estate papers of John Leech in Lawrence Co. give us a good picture of the size and shape of his family at his death. Administrators were William Clarke Leech and William Ash. 1835 July term of Orphans court: Re the estate of John Leech Wm C. Leitch and William Ash appointed admins on bond of Abel Johnson and Samuel Henderson. (There was a Samuel Henderson, son of Nathaniel Henderson and his first wife Esther in York Co. Nathan died in 1794 ad Esther in 1789 and both had wills.) 1835 Appraisors were appointed for John Leech's estate: David Martin, William Johnson, William Moore, William Davis, Josiah Davis. The final settlement in 1838 names John Leech's wife and children: Following heirs to share an equal part of his estate: David Leetch William Ash, in right of his wife Sarah, formerly Leetch. Abel Johnston, in right of his wife Jane, formerly Leetch. John D. Blair, in right of his wife Clarissa F., formerly Leetch. William C. Leetch (In another document the C appears as Clarke) Eleanor Leetch, widow of the deceased. The Ash, Johnston/Johnson, and Blair families were all neighbors of John Leech in sw York Co. SC, although Abel Johnston was said to have been born in KY (A number of upstate SC Scotch-Irish settlers went to western KY about 1800 to claim bounty lands there.) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jerry Johnston" <jerry@ttha.com> To: <almarion@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2006 7:57 AM Subject: Re: [ALMARION] James Henry & his son Alexander W.
