Isabella Pape (nee Whitfield) was born 1846 in Workington (Cockermouth) to John Whitfield and his wife Mary (nee Beeby) who lived in the Seaton Iron Works area.
She married a Roger Pape on 25 February 1969 at St John's Church, Workington, he was a 26 year old Seaman living Bridge Street, Workington, father a Richard Pape a Labourer. Isabella was living King Street Workington a 23 year old Spinster father John Whitfield, Gardner.
Roger died 11 March 1871 at Bridge Street, Workington age 29, the informant was a Mary Graham of Bridge Street, Workington.
The 1871 census shows his widow Isabella Pape living with her sister Mary Ann McCoid (nee Whitfield) and her family in Workington, Isabella is shown as a widow.
After the 1871 census I have lost all track of her, I have followed up a few marriages to no avail and have never found a death for her.
Can anyone help please ?
Regards Mary

Thanks Geoff E, I have l read lookeed ino the marriage of an Isabella Pape Wigton 1880 and found she married a Wilfred Thompson in 1880. Looking at the 1891 she was born Holme Cultram and going back to the 1871 there was an Isabella Pape born Holme Cultram who seems to fit the bill, she was a daughter. So not my Isabella who on the 1871 was a widow. Thanks for your help and interest.
Regards Pauline Thomas

Thanks Bon and Geoff2
I think I may have answered the query, in that an Isabella Pape married a Robert Porteous and these are the further records you have found and I thank you.
I have found the Isabella Pape married to the Robert Porteous and altho'the names of the children are family names can discount her as she was born Holme Coultran Cumberland and going back to the 1871 there is indeed an Isabella Pape there born Holme Coultram.
So for me back to the drawing board !
Regards Pauline Thomas and thanks for your interest.

I agree my mistake, it was Wilfred Thompson an Isabella Pape (not mine !) married in Wigton in 1880, his wife Isabella was from Holme Cultram.
Indeed my Isabella (1846) was the daughter of John Whitfield and Mary Whitfield (nee Beeby) one of 11 children born to the couple. Father John was born Haltwhistle and his wife Mary Cumwhitton.
They are on the 1841 census at Seaton Iron Works.
My Isabella seems to have disappeared after 1871 but I won't give up !
Thanks for everyone's interest.
Regards, Pauline
