Posted on: Johnston Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/joh/Johnston/427 Surname: Johnston, Smith ------------------------- "John Evander Smith came to the United States in October 1815. He landed in New York City. Later John Smith made his home in Paducah, Kentucky. He was known as Capt. Jack. He was Captain and Pilot of a River Steam Boat on the Cumberland. He met Narcissus Johnston (born Dec. 16, 1809 of Nashville) whose people ran the famous Pioneer Springs in East Nashville. He asked her to wait for him and we would return for her. He did and they were married. They moved to Paducah before their 4th child was born." This information was copied years ago from a family Bible. I am looking for ANY INFORMATION on the parents or family of Narcissus Johnston and Pioneer Springs. Any help appreciated.

I am looking for any information about Stephen Bilby JOHNSTON. He was born in Washington County, PA 1814. I do not know who his parents or siblings were except for one sister named Betsy who married a man named HAWK. He was in Van Buren County, by 1846 where he married Elizabeth JOHNSTON ( no relation). Stephen died Nov 1898 in Van Buren County. It is possible that his mother's maiden name was Bilby. I will gladly share any information I have. Celia

I am trying to find out about a John Johnston b 1823 married to Susannah Day. They had five children, James, Abraham, George S. Mahahi and Sara Jane. I believe that John is the son of Robert Johnston and his first wife Mahali Carder. Does anyone know if there was an 1830 Census or any kind of record that would help me to tie these two together? Thanks for any suggestions. Sally Havens
