Individual Details
James Johnston
(13 Jul 1800 - 22 Dec 1889)
Information on this individual is from the manuscript about Buckhorn, Kentucky families, by Asbury B. Johnston. He gives the date of death as 1899, and is considered a primary source as he lived during this period and was there, further, he interviewed other family members for additional information that was in the manuscript.
The gravemarker listing his death date was a memorial stone for his parents and siblings and is considered tertiary evidence that was erected many years after the fact and is more subject to error.
