Earlier in this posting, Isabelle Dotson's death in Los Angeles in 1948 was mentioned. She was the daughter of James Waterson and Matilda Booth. Today I received her obit and I will try to attach it. Names 7 children but they must be from 2 marriages as some are named Rigby.

Sandra, You have done a marvellous job of tracing the family descendants down from Isabella Watterson with names of spouses and dates of death. Thank you very much. Will take me a while to get all this entered not that I’m complaining, certainly not. It is much appreciated.
Saw the name of Samuel Quigley in the last posting regarding Bella’s marriage. Likely a relative of some sort as there is a Nancy Ann Quigley on the tree but with a different branch of the Wattersons.
On my end, I have written to two different  churches in Ireland looking for the baptisms of the children of John Watterson and Martha Martin since the baptisms are not at Woods Chapel.
Oh, I see a new posting by RJ137. This is great. Thank you for the marriage posting.
