Robert Johnstone senior was in Sloops, including "Perseus" and in those times the Sloops were operational in the catching of smugglers.

Robert JOHNSTONE Born circa 1808 and reputed to have died *11 September 1891 at Loch Lomond aged 84 leaving four sons and two daughters. He was married to Mary Crawford in 1838 in Ayrshire and is listed as a "Coal Shipper" on the 1841 census and a "Master Shoemaker employing 17 men" on the 1851 census. Robert and Mary moved back to Carrickfergus between 1854 and 1856.

(All my attempts to locate a death certificate in Ireland and Scotland to confirm this date have been unsuccessful so far.)

Robert Johnstone, "Shipyard" succeeded Bowman, Logan and Co. in Carrickfergus and built his first ship in 1861. By 1868 he employed, as his shipyard manager, his son-in-law Paul Rodgers, who since 1864 had gained a reputation in the Johnstone yard for his yacht and schooner designs. Rodgers became proprietor of the Carrickfergus yard in 1870. However, he didn't build his first vessel until 1874.

(Some of the information about Robert Johnstone is from a flyer on the Result. The Result was the last surviving schooner built in Carrickfergus. She was built of steel in 1892-93 by Paul Rodgers but completed by Robert Kent and Co.

*The death date for Robert is from the Rodgers entry on page 29 in "Old Families of Carrickfergus and Ballynure from Gravestone Inscriptions and Biographical Notes", compiled by George Rutherford and edited by Richard Clarke. It should also be noted Paul Rodgers was born in 1833 not 1834 as the entry says.)
