Sarah Turner

[woodlea]

Do not know her date of death. Found a Sarah Bryson on FreeBMD  March qt.1918 Wigton & James Bryson  Dec. qt.1919 Carlisle. Could this be them?

It might be because they don't appear on the Scottish site 

A pity that they moved across the border, it would have given another check on her parentage .  English death certs don't give that info.

We're trying to find Sarah's parents, Joe. Can you check the 1851 as well, in case we've missed any, please

That was the 1851 that I saw, Joe but wasn't sure about 

Sarah's parents from the marriage cert are John and Mary but no mention of a Mary among her children. She could have got it wrong on the marriage cert. but very difficult to tell. So far, I can't find a baptism record for her at all.
