About 1849, Isabella married John Jenkins, a family close to the Burrells in South Carolina and Mississippi. They are living among related Jenkins-Burrell families in Attala County, Mississippi. Isabella's husband John's identity is uncertain. He is reported by at least one genealogy as another son of Samuel M Jenkins, but approximate birth dates of other chidlren don't leave room for John's reported birth in 1825.

A long list of names are given with birth dates and some marriage dates. But the article notes that for most, no relationships are given. The first name on the list is John James Jenkins, born April 5, 1830. The third entry reports that John James Jenkins married Eliza L Ables December 28, 1886. They are linked on Find a Grave.
The article later notes that this may be the same John Jenkins who first married Isabelle. Other records show that John James Jenkins married Isabella Avilla Burrell.
