No marriage records have been found to date. According to the Leslie Parish records, James of Drumgowan and his wife Isabel had a daughter Isabel in 1792 but the same James of Drumgowan and his wife 'Margaret' had a child named William in 1794. However the death record of young William Booth 85 years later in Forbes confirms that his mother's name was Isabel Booth.
