Isabella Thompson was born on 26th September 1844 at Monkwearmouth in County Durham, daughter of a shipwright named John Thompson and his wife Frances. By the time of the 1851 census the family had left Monkwearmouth and moved to South Hylton. The 1851 census finds Isabella living with her parents and grandmother at South Hylton. Isabella appears to have been an only child.
In 1866 Isabella was married to a shipwright named Joseph Cooper. He was from South Hylton, and indeed had spent some of his childhood living just a few doors away from Isabella and her family. However, they did not marry in South Hylton, but at St Andrew's Church in the Deptford area of the adjoining parish of Bishopwearmouth and town of Sunderland. After their marriage they lived in South Hylton for a few years, having their first two children there and appearing there in the 1871 census.
Some time between 1871 and 1875 they left South Hylton and moved to the town of Hebburn on the banks of the Tyne, a few miles north of South Hylton. Their youngest daughter was born at Hebburn in 1875, and they appear to have then stayed in Hebburn for the rest of their lives. Each census from 1881 to 1911 finds Isabella and Joseph living with at least one of their children in Hebburn.
Joseph died in 1913, aged 70. Isabella outlived him by 17 years and died in 1931, aged 86.
