Rewatching the visit to the cottage, the researcher says it is Tomintoul, where Isabella had her "guilt" with Russell and where she had her two children, and where she spent a great deal of her life, but it is Annie Lennox who says that Isabella was still living in that cottage on the censuses and when her (Annie's) grandfather was a child. She says "living here" when she looks at the censuses and later on, "so many decades living alone, up here" but the researcher or archivist doesn't correct her. But it seems Annie had got the wrong end of the stick and thought that Isabella lived in that cottage all her life when she only lived there (or near it?) when she was younger.
So, I shall go back to page 1 and correct my synopsis!
