Hi there

Always remember to use wildcards on your SP searches!!  Especially with a name like JOHNSTONE which can very easily lose the trailing E.  I believe your family is safely found in 1901 same parish.  I searched on JO*NSTON* , ALEX* ages 12 - 14 in the one parish and there is only one result. 

There are enough common factors to make the family look like the right one...but I guess only you'll know that for sure.

Best wishes
Jean
