"The Johnston & Vernon Families Home Page"

I have been doing family history research for over 40 years. I have mainly focused on my direct Johnston/Harvey lines and my husband's Vernon/Adcock lines.
I have over 3,800 names in my data base with approximately 5,000 more names to add and at present it contains 754 surnames. If you do not find a connection here to the surname that you are searching please contact me as I have a huge number of paper files including numerous pictures and documents. This page will be updated as time permits.
I appreciate any corrections or additions.
