FIELD, ISOBEL OSBOURNE STRONG: 1858-?

Isobel Osbourne was born in Indianapolis in 1858. Her mother (the former Fanny Van de Grift) divorced her husband, Samuel Osbourne, and left Indianapolis, taking her son, Samuel Lloyd Osbourne, and Isobel when the latter was about four years old.

They went to Paris, where Isobel attended Julian's Atelier des Dames.

Her mother met and married Robert Louis Stevenson, and Isobel was a member of the Stevenson household and assisted him to some extent in his writing. She accompanied him and her mother on his search for health in the U. S. and in the Pacific isles.

In 1879 she married J. D. Strong and, in 1914, Salisbury Field. Some of her writing was published under each name.
