This page documents the story of Isabella Rush, the third child of Richard Rush and Cecilia.
Isabella was born on 1 August 1845 in the Hutt Valley. Sadly she died on 10 August 1846, aged just one year, apparently from teething problems, a common ailment at that time.
Isabella was buried in Bolton Street cemetery in Wellington, though it is not known where her grave is. We suspect it is with or near her father Richard Rush.
A Wellington newspaper reported the death: RUSH, Mrs. dau 1 yr teething.
