  Research Notes:

ISOBEL AND ELIZABETH

"Isabella:
Isabella fits neatly in with Olivia as the Latin form of a common medieval name, Isabel, which itself arose from another common medieval name, Elizabeth. Even as late as the 16th C, one and the same woman could be recorded as Isabel(la) and Elizabeth interchangeably, and hybrid forms like Elsabell can also be found in that era."

from Dictionary of Medieval Names 5


Isobel married David RUTHERFORD Provost of Aberdeen, son of Patrick RUTHERFORD and Marjory MENZIES, on 11 August 1583 in Saint Nicholas parish, Aberdeen, Scotland.1 2 (David RUTHERFORD Provost of Aberdeen was born about 1555.)


  Marriage Notes:

"Provost David Rutherford was a brother of Provost Rutherford of Rubislaw and was married to Elizabeth Cullen, a daughter of Provost Cullen. His wife died in February, 1628, and was buried in the Cullen Aisle free, in terms of her father's mortification to the Kirk work charge of the burgh."
