Thanks Isobel
How did you find them on the 1881, i have the disks and couldn't flag any of them up at all (didn't think double zz). You aint sending me on a wild goose chase as there was an Isabella Mitchell. I'll go off now and sort them out. Must also get all these scraps of paper in front of me sorted. Thank again, your all Stars
ps we need a Star emoticon

Don't know how relevant it is, but Isabella's marriage to Fortune Leonardi is on IGI - 13 June 1844 St Cuthberts - her father was John Mitchell, in case you haven't got it.

Best wishes

Hi Pinkshoes
Yes I did know the parents. It was Isabella's mother who died in 1855(help deciphering in Statutory Records post) that started this ball rolling. I was trying to trace her children. Anyway Isabella was really busy, still can't beleive at age of 25 she was having her 12th child, 2 boys & 2 girls were deceased. She had another 4 that I now know of!!
Anyway back to my reams of paper :D
