ISABELLA BEVERIDGE.....

Post by gen10 » Sat May 07, 2005 8:12 pm

Looking for information on Isabella Beveridge.

Born Beath 24 April 1883
Parents William Beveridge and Susan Alexander.

Isabella is in the 1891 and 1901 Census for Cowdenbeath. I have searched records on the net up to 1954 for deaths and up to 1929 for marriages. Can't find anything. Can anyone help?

Hello gen10,


with a name like Isabella and its many variations such as Isobel, Bella, etc. it is always best to use a wildcard search, such as *bel*. That type of search brings up the mis-indexed Isbella Beveridge marrying Joseph Martin in 1908. The entry is clearly written Isabella, so it may be that the indexer's fingers slipped.

I could not find a death for Isabella or husband, but she would have been 71 in 1954, and both her parents died older than that. William died in 1928 and Susan in 1920, both in Cowdenbeath.


Regards,

John

Hello Sporran

Many thanks for the information on Isabella. Can I presume that her marriage is listed on Scotlands People?
I knew the dates of her parents deaths, and her brother, my great grandfather, he didn't die until 1964 aged 84.

Once again, many thanks for the info.
