Among the children of James Cubbon and Elizabeth Cannel was Elizabeth (1853).

In March 1877 an Elizabeth Cubbon married John Preston in Braddan.

By 1881 there is no sign of Elizabeth but a John Preston ( widow) 31 is living with his brother George in Hope St. Douglas.

There is a record in Brian Lawson's index of an Elizabeth Preston 23 , buried Nov. 1877.

It may be a case of death from the birth of Catherine.

It may be a bit speculative but worth looking into .
