Her obituary in the Rowan County News of July 21, 1960 reported:

“Funeral services for Mrs. Isabelle Quisenberry, 85 year old pioneer citizen, were conducted Tuesday afternoon at 1 o'clock at the residence with Rev. Luther Bradley officiating. Interment was in the family cemetery. Mrs. Quisenberry, daughter of the late William and Mary Goodman Johnson, was born in Elliott County June 10, 1875. She married Andrew Quisenberry, who preceded his wife in death. There are six surviving children: Mrs. Allie Hanes, Muncie, Ind.; Mrs. Flora Adkins, Springfield, O.; and Mrs. Nora Conn, Lee Quisenberry, Roy Quisenberry and Elza Quisenberry, all of Elliottville. She also leaves 20 grandchildren. Mrs. Quisenberry was a member of the United Baptist Church. Lane Funeral Home cared for arrangements.” (There is a typo in this obituary - the surviving daughter should be Nola Conn, not Nora.)

Be careful not to confuse her with Isabelle Johnson born Sep 1873, daughter of William B. Johnson and Nancy J. Patton, who married Kelly Hogge.
