From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Richard Johnston (1759 - 20 March 1806) was an Irish architect and property developer active in Dublin from at least October 1784.
Johnston was born in Armagh, Ireland, the eldest son of William Johnston by his first marriage to Margaret Houston and older brother of architect Francis Johnston.
He married his cousin Susanna Barnes while his brother Francis married her sister Anne.[1] Neither him nor his brother Francis are recorded as having any children with the assets remaining in their wills ultimately going to their half-brother Andrew Johnston.
He was recorded as living at 40 Dorset Street from 1792 to 1800 and 24 Eccles Street from 1801 to 1806.
He was buried at the Taney Parish churchyard in Dundrum, Dublin.[2]
