  • James William Johnston (ur. 29 sierpnia 1792, Jamajka, zm. 21 listopada 1873, Cheltenham) – kanadyjski prawnik, sędzia i polityk konserwatywny, premier Nowej Szkocji. James William Johnston urodził się na Jamajce jako najmłodszy syn osiadłego tam szkockiego pochodzenia uciekiniera z Georgii Williama Martina Johnstona i Elizabeth Lichtenstein. Gdy był dzieckiem rodzina przeniosła się do kontynentalnych kolonii brytyjskich. W czasie rewolucji amerykańskiej i wojny o niepodległość rodzina Johnstonów stała na pozycjach lojalistycznych. Po powstaniu Stanów Zjednoczonych rodzina wyemigrowała w Nowej Szkocji wchodząc do elity społecznej nowo tworzącej się kolonii. James odebrał staranne wykształcenie podstawowe i średnie, a następnie ukończył studia prawnicze. (pl)
