Mary McALLISTER and husband John JOHNSTON

Posted: 29 Jan 2014 9:28PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Johnston, McAllister, McNeill, Little, Nickerson, Nicholson
The following is from a chart that dated from 1850 cited in "McCallums - Daniel McCallum Isabel Sellars - Their Antecedents, Descendants and Collateral Relatives" by Farrell and Hooker, 1946:

Mary McAllister's mother was supposedly a McNeill. Mary McAllister married John Johnston and their daughter Margaret was born on the Isle of Gigha, Scotland in 1736. Margaret married Archibald Little, son of Duncan Little and a Miss Nickerson or Nicholson whose father, a nobleman, disinherited her for marrying beneath her. Archibald and Margaret Johnston Little left Gigha in 1770 with two of his brothers and her brother John Johnston for North Carolina. It appears from existing Robeson Co., NC records that John and Mary McAllister Johnston came with them.

I am searching for additional information on these people. Thank you.
