I take it there are different ways of the spelling of Johnstone’s in those days?

« on: Saturday 23 November 24 17:00 GMT (UK) »Elizabeth Johnstone is under her mother’s maiden name. Her mother married after Elizabeth was born 1890 to Martin Jardine.Rather strange that the 1901 for Martin Jardine has a 1yr old Elizabeth. Also shows Elizabeth Jardine was b England 1862 but 1881 & 1891 shows England 1869
1891 also has a 5mth old Joseph Jardine who is with Martin & Elizabeth in 1901

Elizabeth Johnstone is under her mother’s maiden name. Her mother married after Elizabeth was born 1890 to Martin Jardine.
But I’ll look now.

I have Elizabeth Johnstone in my tree b1888 Hawick. Her mother was Elizabeth Johnstone b1869.
She is on the census 1891 Hawick as a boarder but after that cannot find her?
Could anyone help on her whereabouts please?
