Notes - Robert Johnston
Son of William Johnston and Sarah Furness nee King
William's military record lists a son, Robert, born 12 Dec 1918
However, there is no BMD record for such a birth.
William and Sarah had a daughter, Margaret Isabella, on 15 Dec 1918
This means that Robert would have to be a twin and there is no record of this.
My feeling is that the 'Robert' party of the entry in William's military record is wrong.
