Hi List: I am searching for: David Johns(t)on born circa 1787 in Georgia. By 1838, he was living in Plaquemines Parish, LA and in 1840, he married Hannah Fredericka Hoffman. In 1841, they had their only child, Alexander Henry Johns(t)on. In 1863, Alexander married Magdalena Keisel and in 1864, Hannah married Mathew Weisheimer in New Orleans, LA. Alexander & Magdalena had 3 children. Alexander died in 1869 in New Orleans. I can go on and on .. but I think this is enough for now. **NOTE: Magdalena was born in Louisiana, but resided in Harrison County, Mississippi. Her parents were Peter and Catherine. She had 2 siblings Catherine & Jacob.

Hi Tami, I am a Johnston by birth and have scant information of my ancestors but here is what I know;; Great grandparents were William Johnston and Mary Gilmore, nothing else known they had a daughter called Mary cannot find out anything about her. '' '' '' son Charles Alexander Johnston, born in Coatsbridge Lanarkshire Scotland in 1855, my grandfather, who came out to Australia in 1876, married and settled here.I cannot find any of them over in Scotland on anything but I do remember my mum saying that a member of the family went over to America. Of course I did not think to ask who at the time. It could have been Mary or a cousin, uncle or a brother that we have not found. Charles called his first son HERBERT WILLIAM HENRY ( who died as a baby ) and his only other son(my dad) was called CHARLES WILLIAM ARTHUR so you can see the naming pattern stays. If you come across any of these names in your search would love to hear from you. this information is off Charles death cer, but found Mary from an old photo. Unfortunately everyone is long gone who could shed any light and I have this passion to find a living relative and I can only do that by working down the line but it is so hard.thanks for your time Desley -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
