Does your husband not know the names of any of his aunts, uncles, or cousins?

Which of Isabella's children was his parent?

When did she marry? And when?

Have you looked to see if any of these people are in any trees on here?

It is difficult to trace Scottish descendants as the bmd's are held by scotlandspeople which is a pay to view site

You have posted on the correct board, but as the events you've mentioned occured in Scotland, people would need to access the pay-to-view site Scotlandspeople to trace forward. They wouldn't have a subscription they could use.

Scottish records on GR & other sites only go up to the 1901 census - and you'd need to find births/marriages only found (in Scotland) on SP.

Try search all members trees for the people you know by their birth names. if anyone who you are not already in contact with lists them, send a message using the 'Find out more' button.

Not sure if I am posting this on the right board. My husbands Grandmother was Isabella Watt born in Stornaway in 1867c .on the 1881 census she lived at 69 church Street, Stornaway and was aged 13. Her Mum was Jane Watt, father George Watt, brother Peter, sister Mary Ann. Isabella married Alexander Mackenzie from Gairloch. Thank you.
