Date of death for Jane Teresa Johnston of Kaiapoi and her children
« on: Wednesday 15 February 17 00:39 GMT (UK) »
Hello everybody. I am researching the McQuillen (sometimes mispelled McQuillan) family tree. I have become stuck regarding the date of death of Jane Teresa Johnston (nee McQuillen). She was born in 1871 as the 2nd eldest daughter of James and Bridget McQuillen who lived in Geraldine, Otago. In 1900 Jane married Henry Johnston (somestimes spelled as Johnson) who was born January 4th, 1879 and died I believe in 1987. They lived in Kaiapoi.

I think there children were:
Henry Alexis Johnston b. 1901  d. 1938
James Frederick Johnston b. 1902
Monica Clare Johnston b. 1904  d. 1993
George Noel Serius Johnston b. 1905.

If anybody finds out addition information about their children they would be fantasic.

With kindest regards,

Ashley

Thank you Lucy2. For the Children I am unsure just exactly how many children Jane Teresa and Henry Johnston had. I managed to find 4 (2 of whom I am a little uncertain) and the birth and death dates of the children.

Warmest regards,

Ashley
