I am doing a research visual novel about John Booth. So I am looking to get some information about Isabel too.
The only information that I can find about Isabel Sumner was that she had a short affair with Booth in 1863. There are several letters from Booth to Sumner and they can be found in the Book Right or Wrong, God Judge Me: The Writings of John Wilkes Booth.
Also in the book, it says she was born on or about June 1st 1847. It also mentions a last name. Dunbar.
A quick Google search for Isabel Sumner Dunbar brings up a grave site.
It lists the occupant's birth date June 1st, 1847 and Death Feb. 23, 1927.
This may be the same person...
