Title: Isabella Pearson
Post by: Torwoodlee on Monday 02 April 18 12:58 BST (UK)
Hello,http://www.rootschat.com/forum/Themes/genealogy/images/bbc/italicize.gif

I am having trouble finding the death of Isabella Pearson born about 1898 in Galashiels.  She was married to William Templeton on the 5th of September 1924 in Galashiels but eventually moved to Innerleithen as William died there in 1965.  They had two children, John, known as Jack, and Helen Middlemass Templeton who I believe was known as Ella.  I'm not sure if Isabella died in Scotland as I was told that there was an Ella Templeton who lived in Wales.  I know that the daughter Helen was known as Ella. I have checked through Scotland's People and I haven't had any luck.  Can anyone help?
Thanks,
T

Does William's death cert confirm Isabella was still alive in 1965?

Yes it does.

Is there a reason you think Isabella may have moved to Wales ?

Do you know where her children John and Helen were living at the time of their father's death in 1965?

I can only find two Isalbella Templeton's who died in Scotland between 1965 and 1981 (you have probably already discounted them) The first one died in Mauchline, Ayrshire in 1965 aged 69 and the other died in Galston, Ayrshire in 1981 aged 82.

Only one I see as a possibility.  Any idea where was William buried?
