It means her maiden name was Isood if I read it correctly.

Phil, when you are replying to one of these just click on Post a Reply instead of starting a new post each time. That way all of your information will be in one place.

Actually, I was misreading the maiden name! It's Agnes Wood! There is a marriage for Joseph Crawford and Agnes Cocquhoun, ms. Wood 2 Feb 1912 in Blythswood, Glasgow. Agnes was a widow hence the name Cocquhoun. Joseph was a widower. Agnes' parents were Archibald Wood and Ann Steel.

Sorry about the confusion. I'm not the best on reading old handwriting.

I just found Joseph Crawford on the 1911 Census. He is living with his sister Christine in St. Rollox, Glasgow with the following children: Dugald 11, Annabella 10, Margaret 8, and Christina 6. This means that Annabella's mother was Joseph's first wife not Agnes Wood Cocquhoun.

Now you need to look for either Annabella's birth cert. or Joseph's first marriage cert.

Good hunting!
