Dear Rootschatters, Trying to find out more details on the following:-

Isabella BLACKSTOCKS born 1 June 1856 Drumelzier, Peebles
to parents: William BLACKSTOCKS and Isabella WILSON....no other details known.

It is not known when Isabella emigrated to Australia or if indeed she arrived with her parents.  The first record of her that I can find is she married Albert S. LIGHTFOOT born 1857 of Newcastle NSW.  She died 1915 St. Leonards, New South Wales, Australia aged 59yrs.

Q.Can anyone find her and/or her family on the 1861 Census please?

Thanks and regards,
Alison in sunny Queensland, Australia.

Dear Emma, Hi there.  Thank you for your kindness in doing the lookup request for me.  Fancy Isabella having all those brothers and sisters.  ;)
