I have found that, especially around the turn of the century, that neighbors often became family. I am documenting my family's neighbors here. To save time I will link the census image to the family units, except in my family line where I link to individuals. --EeVas 13:46, 27 June 2011 (EDT)


Transcript of Thomas Johnston and his family The 1900 census outside of Mesquite Village in Dallas County is a treasure trove for Johnston history. Page 2 show the listings for Thomas Johnston's household, that of his son Ham Johnston and his daughter Laura Johnston.

Thomas Johnston, b. May 1846 in Georgia. His father was born in Virginia and his mother in Georgia. He owns a farm he works with his sons. He has been married for 32 years. Sarah is his wife. She has had 8 children, 6 living. She was born in Texas, her father in Virginia and mother in South Carolina. In their house is Jason J., age 19 b. in Texas in July 1880 he works as a farm laborer; Donrum J. age 26, widower. He was born Mar 1874 in Texas. He too works as a farm laborer; and Roselay Johnston born April 1885 in Texas.

Further up the page is Ham Johnston. b. August 1875, married 4 years to Ada J. no children.

Next to Ham is his sisters family. George Groves, b. July 1864 in Tennessee to parents both born in Tennessee. Laura Groves born Nov. 1869 in Texas. Laura and George have been married 12 years. They have had 6 children, 4 living, all born in Texas. John S. b. Feb 1889, Mary E. b. July 1891, Frank M, b. Apr 1895, and Sarah M. born Sept 1898. (Ham has his mother born in Louisiana and Laura has her born in South Carolina. Sarah, the mother, shows she was born in Texas. I believe there is only one marriage - just the family is not sure where mom was born).
