Sarah Rice nee Farwell
« on: Friday 27 April 18 06:30 BST (UK) »
Hi list, trying to find out what happened to the above Sarah Rice nee Farwell.  She was the daughter of Christopher Farwell (a coal man - on her marriage certificate)

Sarah married my ancestor William Rice in Weymouth Dorset in November 1840. 
William was a mariner and was a widower (of Elizabeth Kenway nee Champ). 

The 1841 Census has William living with his mother Rebecca and Sarah Farwell living with her parents - Christopher and Charlotte (as Sarah Farwell not Rice). 

The problem is that William remarried a third time in 1846 to Ellen Richmond (William & Ellen had a daughter Julia born in 1843)...so I'm trying to work out what happened to Sarah!. ???

There are a few Ancestry trees but the information regarding Sarah doesn't appear to be correct.  I can't seem to find her after that 1841 Census so any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Checking the GRO Index Search, which shows age at death for almost all deaths, 1837-1916:

1840 death, age 0
1843 death, age 0
1845 death, age 9

So she's not any of the deaths I found?! :-\

Ah.....I was just checking the GRO indexes when your reply came through.   ???

Or in the case of the 1847 death....40 yrs - still too old!.  Long after the third marriage anyway!!
