Notes

1850 Census Breton, Washington, Missouri as Isabella HORD; she is living with John S BUCKEY

I see Isabella and John's headstones right next to each other. I don't believe they ever married but it seems after Isabellas sister Sarah passed that she and John may have been partners.
From Find a Grave
