Jenc,

Thanks for the information.  It's been an interesting search regarding this branch of the family and their stores.

Hi Kathleen
Just had another thought about where you might locate a photo of one of the stores.  The local paper 'Dundee Courier' has a column which often features memories of old Dundee and roundabout, the e-mail address is craigie@the courier.co.uk.   Their archives might have something interesting.  No doubt many Dundonians of a ' certain age ' would be happy to be reminded of their popular Johnston's Stores.

Hi Jenc,

Thanks for your idea which I will check into.  On another of my postings -- Johnston, Rae, Ramsay, etc., someone posted a picture of one of the stores, but I'm interested in learning more, so will continue.

Are you, by chance, a member of the Johnston family?

Regards,     Kathleen

Hi Kathleen
Not a family member i'm afraid, just got caught up in your story, which  stirred up happy memories of a Dundee long past Cry  Good luck with your research.
Regards Jenni.
