JOHNSTONS in Phila. in 1860 - JAMES, HANNAH

In the 1860 U.S. Federal Census, Philadelphia Ward 1, Precincts 6, 7 and 9, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania are listed:

James Johnston, 43, b. abt 1817 in Ireland
Hannah Johnston, 35
Mary Ann Johnston, 12
William Johnston, 10
Robert Johnston, 8
Joseph Johnston, 1-6.12

I have been unable to find any of them in 1850 or 1870, but I have some reason to believe they are of the Johnston family from which I am descended. James would have been a brother to Thomas (abt 1809), Robert (1816) and George (1819), all born near Ballybofey/Stranolar, County Donegal. Their parents were James and Mary Ann Crawford Johnston.

George and Robert left PA and settled in Iowa, but I believe James stayed in PA.

Does any of this sound familiar to anyone reading this?
