Guess you have seen the births and baptisms on the IGI. There is a couple of other girls, as well as another son Henry born 1812.

Yes, it is the very same William Johnston.  I managed to find his christening from somewhere - William Alexander Johnstone, christened St.Nicholas, Deptford, 7 July 1816, parents Alexander and Ann Johnston.
He married Sarah Blackman on 16 October 1837 at St.Botolphs, Northfleet, Kent.


According to the St Botolph marriage register, William Johnston's father had the given name William, not Alexander.

One of the children, a couple of years younger than expected, is with her maternal grandmother in 1851.
