Johnston Descendants Omagh Tyrone 1900+

There are 5 of my family members heading to Omagh from Canada this May to see where our ancestors came from - Maguire's and McCutcheon's. Going through my notes on family information, I wonder if there are any Johnston's in the Omagh area who may be descended from the family below -

1901 Census - 6 Church Hill, Omagh

Robert John Johnston, age 40, slater
Lizzie J Johnston, age 39 (Maiden name MAGUIRE)
James Johnston, age 14, apprentice slater
Susan johnston, age 12, scholar (emigrated to Pennsylvania)
Robert Johnston, age 11, scholar
William Johnston, age 7, scholar
Sarah Johnston, age 4
Christina Johnston, age 5 months

Elizabeth Anne (Maguire) Johnston was born about 1862, the daughter of Catherine Maguire, who was the daughter of Edward Maguire and Anna Campbell. Her siblings were - Mary, Ellen, William Stewart, James and Charles. All but Elizabeth and James emigrated to Canada. I have found no reference for a marriage for Catherine Maguire although she had 6 children. In 1901 she was living with her son James in Omagh. Catherine Maguire died in Killycurragh in 1902 and the death registration was signed by her daughter, Elizabeth Johnston. Edward Maguire also died in Killycurragh in 1889, his wife Anna died sometime before him.

We would love to connect with "family" while over in N. Ireland and possibly find out much more family history on the Maguire's. We are in contact with a Grandaughter of James Maguire and look forward to seeing her & family when we get there.

Any Johnston's who are connected to the Maguire's please contact me ASAP. Would love to hear from long lost family members.
