The following info from New York City Marriage records at Family Search (giving name as Isabella, but matching parents' and spouse's names): marriage date, husband's age (23), estimated DOB, parents, own place of birth

Cemetery records mentioned at JS 10065 give two alternate birthdates for her. A page of a family bible gives her name as Isabella Somerville, born 1844-02-26 in Airdrie (old Monkland parish, Lanarkshire); this is consistent with the birthdates of her siblings listed on the same document, and is likely to be the correct value. The cemetery biography though says that Isabel(la) was 25 in 1871 and living in Morrisania, NY when she became guardian of her younger siblings following her mother's death.
