Hi Georgina Have you seen on Free bmd there is a death of an Isabella Thompson 1883 age 58 in Easingwold which spans part of North Riding and Durham. April

I'm mystified as to what became of her. She married in 1852 to John Thompson. I found her as a widow in 1881 living in Darlington. A very kind soul searched through registers of three cemetaries in Darlington and a couple of church registers for her burial but could'nt find her. According to the electoral registers the house they resided in 1881 was empty from 1882-1887. She was 54 in 1881. In 1881 she had shortened her name to Isabel when it should be Isabella. George

Sorry Georgina nothing showing up at the mo, do you have any other info on her

Well I can at least rule those three Isabellas out. Can you try the name Isabel and add 1yr/minus 1yr. Thanks George

Hi Georgina theres 3 showing up with what info you gave Isabella Holmes wife living Northumberland Isabella Kindred head " " Isabella Dawson wife Cumberland APRIL

Hi This might be impossible but I'll ask anway. I'm looking for a woman called Isabella aged 64yrs, b Alston CUL. I'm starting to suspect that she remarried sometime between 1881 & 1891 as I can't find her death. May be in County Durham. George
