McCafferty & Johns(t)on - TN>MO>KS>?
Seeking contact with other descendants of Charles L. 'Lee' Johns(t)on and Nancy R. McCafferty. They married in Maury Co., TN, 1849. Moved from there either briefly to AR or directly to Christian Co., in SW MO. They had at least 7 children.
On leaving MO, they moved to Loda and/or Langdon, Reno Co., KS, and were enumerated in the KS State Census of 1875.
Nancy's parents were James Green McCafferty and his wife, Mary (surname not known). They may both have originally been from NC.
According to the 1880 U. S. Federal Census, both of Lee Johnston's parents were b. in KY.
Their known children were:
James N. Johnston
Mary M. Johnston (my line)
Francis E. Johnston
Charles F. Johnston
George M. Johnston
Thomas Johnston
William Johnston
At least one of these children--a son-- may have moved on to Montana or Wyoming, and one--also a son-- may have moved to the Dakotas or Wisconsin / Minnesota.
If you connect to any of these Johnston or McCafferty people, kindly contact me at:
