I have two Johnston family trees which came to me from my great great uncle, the Rev James B Johnston (mentioned below). One is of copiable size, but is in very small manuscript, and difficult to decipher, so isunlikely to copy well. The other is on a large sheet (roughly A1). Both go back several generations from James Townsend Johnston to the Rev John Johnston, Minister at Arngask, Kinross-shire, who died in 1746.
