Between 1825 and 1830, the Snoddy brothers (Matthew, Johnston, William and Benjamin) migrated to Ohio^[6][7]; perhaps also their other brother, John - as his sons are found there later.

Johnston then moved to Franklin county, Indiana, between 1840 and 1850. He was in the 1850 Census^[8] and the 1860 Census ^[9], but in different Franklin County, Indiana townships.

He passed away in 1869.
