 On  the marriage cert he was a 'Farm Servant'
 I have found a Peter Johnston on the 1891 census (but not on 1901 or 1911 census) showing him being married to a 'Mary' aged 24 with children Peter 3 and William 1 at Lumphanan (Aberdeenshire)
Have not found, so far, a death of 'Mary Johnston' between 1891 to 1901 to make him a 'widower'
Or a marriage to '[Mary'

There's a family in Monymusk in the 1911 index on SP, which might be Peter Johnstone and Jane Cruickshank. None of Peter's older children with Mary Adam seem to be there though:

Peter, aged 40
Jane, aged 36
Flora, aged 8
John, aged 6
Robert, aged 4
Annabella, aged 2
Charlie, aged 0

Ruth
McArthur, Milne, Mitchell, Black, Robertson, Morrison, Slessor, Lawrence - Aberdeenshire/Banffshire. Muir, Waddell, Fraser, Orr, Cowden - Lanarkshire/Renfrewshire/Dunbartonshire. Dalziel, Dalzell, Gourley, Cromie, Crombie, Bell - Co Down. Lewis, Corrigan, Morris, Cox, Hay - Monmouthshire/Pembrokeshire.  Baker, Ginger, Woodhurst, Swift, Jones - Kent/London.
