Johnston family Magherfelt Co Antrim
« on: Tuesday 22 January 19 11:37 GMT (UK) »
I am researching Thomas and Jane Johnston from Castledawson Magherfelt. I do not have any
Birthdates for them , unable to find any birth records. I did manage to find a death date for Jane
Johnston 27.12.1876

Their children are Jane Johnston born 11.12.1839, Mary Ann Johnston born 26.6.1842
Rachael Johnston born 6.4.1845; William Johnston born 31.5.1848, Charles Johnston 24.7.1850
Elizabeth Johnston born 28.7.1853

Their names were written in a bible belonging to Jane Johnston passed down to my mother

Any information would be greatly appreciated

Jane's death certificate will eventually be online but the index shows her age as 61 years-

If you don't want to wait you can view the certificate on GRONI's site after registering and purchasing a few credits.
The death certificate will list marital status and exact place of death which will help find husband Thomas' death. Informant's details might also be useful.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
