Johnston-30479 and Johnson-123613 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles appear to represent the same person and this came to light after merging the profiles of their fathers. Parents names are the same, except for the father's surname which is spelled either johnston or johnson depending on which record is being reviewed. This occurred back and forth sporatically over time in this family. Siblings given names are the same. These two given names are the same. There are multiple generations attached downstream of some of these siblings. I would propose the surname of johnston for the merged profile. His Find A Grave headstone is spelled johnston also.
