This is all the information regarding Mary, she is buried beside her husband in the Cane Ridge Cemetery, Antioch,Tn.  Quote from Historic Cane Ridge and Its Families.

"In a listing of those in Davidson Co., 1812, we find the following Johnson, Johnston: John Johnston, Jr.,  John Johnston, Sr.,   Isaac JOHNSTON.  It soon became evident that the Isaac Johnson family dropped the "t" out of their name where the John Johnston family of the same community kept if for a while longer at least". "This family was very active in the Cane Ridge Presbyterian Church as indicated in the Church Records found elsewhere in this book."

I would love to know more about Mary BOYD.
