Well spotted Astra.


Mind you, Sarah would only have been a year old in 1841.

Whooopeee!!

I have just double checked the image of Sarah Elizabeth's baptism record and she was born...

20th March 1831

Which is why i couldn't find her with husband Samuel in any records.

I have found her now.........

Nice one PH. Isn't it the same Sarah in 1871??

Re the 1841 Sarah was born 1831 so she would be 10 in 1841 surely!

Wondering if this is Jane although I cant find her before this
