The New York Times, October 13, 1903:
London, Oct. 12. Mrs. Isaac Sherman, mother of Mrs. Bradley-Martin, died at Balmacaan, Inverness-shire, today.
Mrs. Sherman was the widow of Isaac Sherman, a wealthy merchant of New York, who was a contributor to the press and magazines on the subject of taxation. Mr. Sherman retired a number of years before his death, which occurred about twenty years ago. Mrs. Sherman lived for many years in a handsome mansion on West Twentieth Street, adjoining that of her daughter, Mrs. Bradley Martin, who was Miss Cornelia Sherman. It was in these twin houses that many splendid entertainments were given by Mrs. Bradley Martin.
Early in the nineties, soon after the marriage of the Earl of Craven to Miss Cornelia Bradley Martin, Mrs. Sherman went with her daughter to reside permanently in England and Scotland. Some time previously the Bradley Martins had purchased Balmacaan, a famous property in Scotland, where Mrs. Bradley Martin and Mrs. Sherman gave many house parties. Mrs. Sherman also built a residence next to that of her daughter in London, where she lived until a short time before her death. Her summers were passed with her daughter at Balmacaan.
Mrs. Sherman had been in ill health for some time, and her death was not unexpected.
Note: Lord Craven married Bradley Martin and Cornelia (Sherman) Martin's daughter, also named Cornelia. Above is not too clear.
