General Notes: Husband - John Johnston


He was a native of Ireland, and became one of the pioneers of Plum Creek township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where he bought about 150 acres of land which he cleared and improved, living upon it until his death.

He volunteered in the War of 1812, but it closed before he saw any active service.
