My great grandfather John Joseph Johnston was born in strabane workhouse on the 24th oct 1905. A person by the name of R J Craig registered the birth on the 1st November 1905. His mothers name was Rose ann Johnston (Nee Davis)who lived in the workhouse. His fathers name was John Johnston, he lived at whiteabbey and was a heckler. My grandmother told me that when my great grandfather was about 15 years old when he boarded a ship for england. This is all we know about the Johnston side of our family due to my great grandfather passing away in dunkirk when my grandmother was a child. If anyone has any information a little or lots then please get in contact i will be really pleased to hear from you Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
