5.   Isabella Almas Hammill, in Find A Grave.

   Her gravestone gives her birth year as 1847.

6. ↑ She was unlikely to have been born in Feb 1846 (before her parents were married), as stated in her death record. The earlier census records suggest she was born in 1847, as supported by her gravestone, but whether on 7 Feb (as in her death record) or 22 Aug (as in the 1901 census), cannot be said.
