I am also searching for info about a Johnson Mattinson. He is named on my grandmother's marriage certificate (he was her father) as a bobbin manufacturer. My grandmother was Catherine Mattinson possibly also known as Kate and later Kitty, even Kathleen to her Irish mother-in-law. She married Joseph Augustus Keogh 30th June 1914 in Blackpool. I am hoping that - Kate - one of Johnson's daughters that you mention is also my grandmother all I know about her is that she came from the North of England possibly Yorkshire had a lot of sisters and met her husband in the theatre (he was an actor and manager/producer) The only other thing she told me was that some relative was on HMS Hood during the war, wheather he was a survivor or not I am not sure.
I have not been able to find a Johnson Mattinson on any census return, though I did find a Johnston, a joiner, but he didn't have all these children and no Catherine or Kate.
If you do find any other information I would be so gratefull. If I discover anything I will post it here for you.
