Your doing better than I am then. I can't find a marriage for William and Sarah or find them in 1841/1851 with Rosa. You said in your subject line "looking for records on sarah davis b:1830-1840", I am assuming you meant Rosa.

Your'e correct, the title should have been Rosa. I can't find any immigration records to Australia or marriage records in England.

This could be Rosa in 1841, Spring Gardens, New Windsor, Berkshire. But it does'nt help much.
William Davis       M    30-34    
Sarah Davis       F    30-34    
Rosa Davis       F    7    Berkshire
William Davis       M    4    Berkshire
Emanuel Davis       M    2    Berkshire
James Davis       M    20-24    

Still can't find a marriage for Rosa or birth for William Burnell.

So the death in 1898 was'nt William Burnell unless he change his name when Rosa married George.
