Don't have a lot on mine. She was my GGGrandmother, named Mary HALL married to William JOHNSTONE. Their son, my GGrandfather, was named John Hall JOHNSTONE, b abt 1844/45, in Dumfries. He travelled to New Zealand in abt 1865. Family talk has it that he travelled with his brother (name unknown) who 'got off' in Australia. Would love to know if you have come across Mary in your research.
