I have an Elma Blanche ISHERWOOD Edwards, born Ballarat 1863 and married to Joseph Hunkin in 1883 in Georgetown. It is said that Elma's mother was Mary Isherwood who married Ernest Edwards in England.It is said that Elma taught pano at her grandmothers school for young ladies in Carrick Tas which I believe is not far from Launceston. This would have been prior to her marriage.Any information would be gratefully appreciated.The name Isherwood has been used as a second name for the last three generations.It was also said that Mary was the niece or daughter of Sir Henry Isherwood from Bolton Hall? Lancashire? England.I have not yet been able to confirm any of this information as I have only just recently received it.But the person I got it off received it back in 1985.How true it is I do not know.But as I said I would really appreciate any help you may be able to give me.ThanksSheryl
