The Wifes Great Great Grandparents married in the area in 1908. They were Archibald Johnston and Margaret Jane McIlvenna. I was wondering if anyone had any links with the family? Regards, Conor

Was your Archibald Johnston a mail car driver, aged 42 , living in Anticur (Glenbuck, Antrim) married 2 years, with a Maggie and young child John aged one in the irish census of 1911.
If so was he the tram conductor living in digs in Belfasts Auburn St in the 1901 census.
Also in the townland in 1911 is a Margaret Johnston with two daughters.

Many thanks for your reply.
Yeah that's them on the 1911 Census. My wife's great grandmother was born a few months later, Nancy McCracken Johnston. Still to identify other siblings.
