Stuck! And don't know where to...Isabella Harris
« on: Sunday 30 August 15 01:37 BST (UK) »
...post a "Look Up request."

I'm hitting the wall re: my paternal g-grandmother HARRIS, Isabella b. 17 Aug 1857, Bethnal Green, Buckinghamshire.

My g-grandfather CLARKE, John Hawkins d. 20 Feb 1906, leaving Isabella a widow.

Isabella remarries on 10 April 1911, gentleman named MALLOWS, Albert b. 1855 d. 1928.

And then I hit the wall as I cannot find any more information.

Please tell me where to post a Look Up request.

Thank you.

"I'm hitting the wall re: my paternal g-grandmother HARRIS, Isabella b. 17 Aug 1857, Bethnal Green, Buckinghamshire."

I can't help with your other query but just to let you know that Bethnal Green is London, not Buckinghamshire.

Bethnal Green is Middlesex  ;)  As the marriage and Alberts death are both in Norfolk that would probably be a good place to start

Do you have this death certificate, if so who was the informant
Death June qtr 1928
Albert Mallows    age    76   
St.Faith's    4b   97

According to Freebmd there are only two deaths of an Isabella Mallows, neither of which can be her. There is no remarriage after Albert's death either.

There is a death of a Hannah Mallows in Norwich in 1933, she was born 1857, could Isabella be known by another name? Remember that the information on a death certificate is only as good as what is known/given by the informant.

was she the one who married Clarke in August 1879? What exactly are you looking for, her parentage / earlier family or are you looking later?
Threlfall (Southport), Isherwood (lancs & Canada), Newbould + Topliss(Derby), Keating & Cummins (Ireland + lancs), Fisher, Strong& Casson (all Cumberland) & Downie & Bowie, Linlithgow area Scotland . Also interested in Leigh& Burrows,(Lancashire) Griffiths (Shropshire & lancs), Leaver (Lancs/Yorks) & Anderson(Cumberland and very elusive)

Isabella or Isabel?

Do you know where her children may have been during this time period? Presuming she was still living when Albert died, she may have gone to stay with a son or daughter.
