She died in Hopkins Co., TX. 10/97 - Isabella was small of stature but demanded the respect of all the children and when one boy misbehaved, she shipped all of them not wanting to show partiality. She outlived Logan a number of years and made her home visiting all the children. As I (Lyna (McCorkle) Chamberlain) remember her, she like to sit in a cane back chair and read most of the time. Sometimes she would get my brother's dim novels and seem to enjoy them as well as the many religious books in our home. When she came she always told how long she would be staying and on that day, regardless of weather or any complications, she was taken to another home. Everyone loved her and looked forward to her visits. Logan Henderson McCORKLE and Isabella HUGHES had the following children:

+112 i. Henry C. McCORKLE.
