JOHN JOHNSON - GOSFORTH
« on: Monday 20 August 07 23:02 BST (UK) »
Hi

Wonder if anyone can locate a John Johnsons birth/baptims for me.  He was born 1801 but on some census records it could have been as early as 1797.  On later census records he was listed as being born in Chester le street, but on early census it states he was born in Gosforth.

Haven't been able to find any more about him.  I don't know his parents or brothers or sisters so any help would be appreciated.

Hi Janette,

Sorry but John Johnson is a bit common if you'll pardon the expression!
