I have a Benjamin Johnston b in NY 1777. He had a son John b c 1810 John marr 2nd Mary Ann Teetzel in Southwold, Elgin co. 18 sept 1839. John had a son Elisha, but was born 1835 before his marr to Mary Ann, but I don't know who his 1st wife was but it may have been Ann Bissell, Elisha was born in Ont but farrmed in Bancroft Mi and I believe he died there in 1880. Elisha marr a Mary ? and had an Effie b 1859 d aft 1888 marr a Willis Hitchcock, a John b c 1863, a Anna b c 1864, and a Friend B b c 1872. I found Friend in Mi in 1880 census and then in Southwold Ont with an Uncle in 1881 on Hugh Johnstons household. John had a son Mahlon ( My line) b 1856. Mahlon mar Rhoda Jane Brotherhood in Ont. Mahlon then homesteaded in Sask. and took his family there. I have just found that Rhoda had died threr in 1935 and that Mahlon was still living at that time and I presume he died there also in Watrus. Their son Reginald (my Grandfather) was born also in Ont and went to the homestead when he was 2 yrs old, and he marr a Maude Nickerson. the next I know is they were in Los Angeles in 1918 when Maude died. Do any of my Johnston's fit into anything that you have? Thanks for your time, Harry Johnston
