  JOHNSTON, Elizabeth nee OSBORN Mrs. Samuel Johnston – m. 17 July 1834 Daughter of Richard and Sarah Piersol Osborn B. 3 Apr 1817 in Austintown Twp., Trumbull (now Mahoning) Co. OH D. 31 May 1911 in Canfield, Mahoning Co. OH at 94y 1m 28d Burial – 3 June 1911 in Canfield Village Cemetery, Section E Row 07, Canfield, Mahoning Co. OH Mahoning Dispatch, Fri, 2 June 1911 "Mrs. Elizabeth Johnston, the oldest resident of Canfield, died Wednesday evening at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Alexander Dickson, on West Main street. About two weeks ago Mrs. Johnston fell and injured one of her hips and she had since been confined to her bed. On account of her advanced years the shock of the accident was more than she could withstand and from the first there was no hope of her recovery. Deceased was born in Austintown township April 3, 1817, her maiden name being Elizabeth Osborn, and her entire life of 94 years was spent in this county. After her marriage to Samuel Johnston in July 1834, when she was only 17 years of age, she removed to Jackson and there resided for many years. She and her husband moved to Canfield in 1890. Mr. Johnston died in 1894, aged 87 years. Seven children were born to them, six of whom are living – Mrs. Margaret Kirk, Mrs. Alexander Dickson, Mrs. M. E. Hadley of Canfield, Stratton Johnson of Buffalo, N. Y., James F. and R. Taylor Johnston of Youngstown. Mrs. Johnston was a woman of most lovable qualities and was endeared to a wide circle of friends. She was from childhood a member of the Presbyterian church and active in its work until a few years since. Funeral services will be held from the residence of Alexander Dickson on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. standard. And will be in charge of Rev. R. E. Pugh. Interment will be made in the village cemetery.'
