In 1810 John Begg became the land steward for Mr James Hope Vere MP on his estate at Blackwood. He was returning from his regular trip to Lesmahagow market on a horse that he had been asked to ride because it had become fractious due to lack of exercise. The horse reared and fell on him, crushing him to death. Isabella was left a widow with nine children with ages from three to eighteen.
