• Notes

  No birth record has been found for Sarah. According to the 1891 census she was born in 1849. According to the 1901 census, she was born 20 Apr 1854. According to the 1911 census she was born in APR 1852. Her relationship order with her siblings suggests that she was mostly likely born between 1852-1854. These varying dates would have made her betwen 13-18 years old (more likely 13-15) when she married in 1867 to John Brown. As no record has been found for the birth of their first daughter, Ruth, it seems possible that Sarah may have been pregnant at the time of their marriage. A photo, dated 1916, shows Sarah in front of their house at 175 Wilson Street, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The informant at her death was her son James. It's interesting to note that he is recorded as residing at 80 Hess St. N. in Hamilton. So he must have returned to the city of Hamilton at some point to look after his mother. I wonder how his brother Tom dealt with his presence in the city, or perhaps this was prior to their falling out?
