This is all the information

Cane Ridge Cemetery, Antioch,Tn.
Quote from Historic Cane Ridge
and Its Families.
"In a listing of those in Davidson
Co., 1812, we find the following Johnson, Johnston:
John Johnston, Jr.,
John Johnston, Sr., Isaac JOHNSTON. It soon became evident
that the Isaac Johnson family
dropped the "t" out of their name where the John Johnston
family of the same community
kept if for a while longer at least"
"This family was very active
in the Cane Ridge Presbyterian Church as indicated
in the Church Records found
elsewhere in this book."
I would love to know more
about Mary BOYD.
Sincerely,
