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.
