General Notes: Husband - Robert Johnston


He enlisted in the Revolutionary army, and served throughout the war. He was among those who suffered in the British prison-ships in New York harbor after the battle of Long Island, and at a later period was connected with the ill-starred expedition against the Indians in which Col. Crawford and other prisoners were massacred. He, too, was a prisoner, but effected his escape to Detroit, and returned to Fort Pitt.
