Hi Maria,
Have you tried the NSW BDM's on the internet.

An Isabella Miller died in 1836 in NSW aged 34
A Isabella Miller died 1880 at Hillston (Father Robert, Mother Jessie)
A Isabella M. Miller died 1874 at Glebe (Father James, Mother Mary J)

And there were 4 James Miller's who died between 1830-1840- all of their ages are given.

If you want to search the BDM's the address is http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/Index/IndexSrch.cgi?sessionID=1183775

All the best
Andrea
