Rewcastle

Post by Alice Bradford » Sun Jan 29, 2006 5:47 am

Elizabeth Rewcastle was born in England about 1780. She married James Johnston 3 Jan 1801 at Old Monkland, Lanark, Scotland and had nine children. Her youngest child Marrion Johnston was born 28 Jun 1822 at Old Monkland. I would like to know how to find out where Elizabeth was born and who her parents were. Thanks, Alice

Heather, I have quite a bit of information on George Johnston since he immigrated to Utah and then went on to California. I have the names of his 3 wives and children. I do not have a Fanny Johnston as a daughter of Elizabeth and James. I got my information from Scottish Church Records. I'd appreciate it if you could let me know what you have. I have #1 Ann, 2. James, 3. Elizabeth, 4 Thomas, 5 Thomas 6 Euphemia, 7 George, 8 John, 9 Marrion. Thanks, Alice
