Rev. Joshua Johnson of Bladen County was born in 1822. He was the son of Joel Johnson Sr. and Rachel McGee Johnston. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbladen/pictures/ancestors/johnson/jjohnson.htm Joel Johnston Sr., originally from Duplin County, was probably the son of William Johnston. Joel's probable siblings were Jesse, Jacob, William, and Joshua Johnston, all of Duplin County. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbladen/reports/descendents/johnston.joel.htm If anyone has additional information on Jesse, Jacob, William, or Joshua Johnston in Duplin County, I would be interested.
