GlacierAnyone have any information on parents of Grace Johnston/Johnson. She was born about 1769 in either Ireland or the Carolinas. She married Matthew Kirk, born in Ballymoney, County Antrim ca 1760, immigrated with his brothers in 1772 and settled in Lancaster Co. SC where they married ca 1785. Matthew and his brothers served with a James Johnston/Johnson in the revolutionary war but we haven't found a connection to Grace. One of Grace and Matthew's sons was named James Johnston Kirk. Grace Johnston Kirk died in Lancaster in 1858. A letter by someone who knew her said that she was Irish and read to the children from Irish language books. Any information appreciated. Ludie
