Have now, using rootsireland search, which allows for including a father's name, managed to confirm that a Joseph Smallwoods was indeed noted as father of Isabella Bovaird Smallwoods, so looking more and more likely that earlier research indications were correct and that this is she (If this is the case, I supppose it is always possible that as well as being the surname of his first wife, Bovaird may also have been a name linked to Joseph's family too,  from a grandmother or suchlike):

Obviously, if anyone ever manages to get sight of the marriage record, an address on same may prove the final confirmation.

Marriage certificate confirms Isabella's address as Killenan.

I've been trying to link information on Smallwoods into my tree and found this confusing - Are we saying that Joseph who married Margaret Bovaird then remarried an Eliza J (probably Simpson)?
I see a Margaret Smallwoods died in 1866.
