John William JOHNSTON

[DaveHam9]

Looking for a birth in Qld. 1914 - 1917 - parents possibly William and Rose Ann Green


So confusing as 3x William and 2x Johnston married Green.

After 1914 because of arrival.

SS Roscommon, built by Workman, Clark & Co. Ltd., Belfast in 1902 and owned at the time of her loss by Union Steamship Co. of New Zealand, Ltd., London, was a British steamer of 8238 tons. On August 21st, 1917, Roscommon, on a voyage from Manchester to Australia with general cargo, was sunk by the German submarine U-53 (Hans Rose), 20 miles northeast of Tory Island. There were no casualties. Read more at wrecksite: https://www.wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?63170

interesting that father is Mr A.E. Johnson – note on Tree also has from death cert for Rose Ann – died from heart attack details from death cert A72506 & shows Albert Edward Johnson as spouse.

Looks like Rose remarried after William’s death

Thanks Val.

I didn't know Rose remarried but I knew her death reg had Johnson.

I'll leave the query re father being Edward Albert in the other topic.

I need the birth reg in post #1 but my browser won't return any births from Qld index for some reason.

sorry Dave - who are you looking for in Qld Births?

Only birth I can see is under Johnson – Robert Johson b 12 Oct 1920 – mm Rose Johnson nil for father – 1920/C/12072
nothing under Johnston with William & Rose

 

[DaveHam9]

The title Val.
A birth for a John William Johnston in Qld. 1914 - 1920.

Looking to see if William and Rose Ann had a son after arrival.

 

[DaveHam9]

Don't know about this. If that is the right Albert married to Rose then who is Amy married to? - William?

1917 QLD Electoral Roll - Lilley - Enoggera
JOHNSON Albert Edward, Simpson's rd., Bardon Estate, fitter
JOHNSON Amy Elizabeth, Simpson's rd., housewife
JOHNSON Rose, Simpson's rd., Bardon Estate, home duties
JOHNSON William, Simpson's rd., compositor

I can't find a marriage for a William to an Amy.


1925 QLD Electoral Roll - Lilley - Enoggera
JOHNSTON William Hope, Bardon Park Estate, Upper Paddington, carpenter
JOHNSTON Mabel Marion, Bardon Park Estate, Upper Paddington, home d.
