Identity

She was called Isabella Todd or Isabel Minor Todd[2]. The latter version of her name suggests that she was born a Minor (to parents unknown) and married an unknown Todd before marrying John Madison. There was speculation that she was the daughter of Capt. Thomas Todd and Anne Gorsuch, but this is now considered to be "unlikely"[2].

    'No evidence can be found that Isabel or Isabella Todd, sometimes called Isabel Minor Todd and possibly a widow, was a daughter or 9th child of Capt. Thomas Todd ... and Anne Gorsuch. ... The will of Capt. Thomas Todd ... mentions "my fower daughters Anne, Johanna, Frances and Averilla." That Isabella was a 5th daughter seems unlikely.'
