Found by searhing for Isabella born 1850 +/- 2 years, spouse James living in Co Durham.

Gives a list of 80+, so doesn't take long to look for a possible match.

How on earth could McCabe get mistranscribed to Mc Lake. What did the original look like

Cippy

Cippy Report 10 May 2013 20:48

at a first look you could read McLake

never seen a Derring instead of Herring either, but that was really a scribble
