Thanks Murray I don't really know much about the Isabella McBride b1839 and that her father Joseph McBride was a hosier. George Best and Isabella McBride lived on a farm in Lisburn, though I we beleive they were not farmers and where lodgers at the farm. Infact George was a TAILOR. I will keep your note for future use.
