Samuel Johnston b.1888 d.1940 (Westmorland)

[Michael Blackwell]

hi guys,
I am looking for some more information relating to Samuel Johnston. I am struggling to find him before his marriage in 1915.

He was married in 1915 in Westmorland to Essie Pearson, his father was Thomas Johnston.
Samuel is down as doing farm service and his father is down as being a Blacksmith.
I have seen a few family trees which suggest Samuel was born in Ireland but non of them have any sources or facts to support this. I am just wondering if anyone would be able to try and help and find him in 1911. I have Samuel down as living at Kidande Farm in Milnthorpe in 1915 (spelling probably wrong).

Any help would be kindly appreciated

Michael

Hi

Please see http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,355486.0.html - 1911 lookups are not allowed

Is there an association with Lancashire as you have posted on the Lancs board - not Westmoreland

according to www.freebmd.org.uk
1915 june qtr   Samuel Johnson ( no T ) married Essie Pearson  Kendall   10b 1621

Milnthorpe although in Cumbria ( was Westmoreland ) is very close to the Lancashire border ..
the problem here is
Samuel Johnston
Samuel Johnson
Samuel Johnstone
father Thomas - a Blacksmith.....do you have an age for him at his marriage in 1915 ??

I have looked through the census for Milnthorpe. I can see Essie but nobody called Johns(t)on
