Sarah Jane BODKIN
« on: Thursday 21 March 13 13:00 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone know what happened to Sarah Jane BODKIN baptised in Brenchley, Kent in in 1854? She was the daughter of John BODKIN and Eliza HAYWARD. Sarah had 2 sons Frederick John (bap. 1872) and William (bap. 1874). Her father had died in 1855 and her mother Eliza remarried William James MOCKFORD in 1863. I the 1881 census Eliza and William MOCKFORD have Sarah's 2 sons living with them, but they are sent to Canada on the SARMATIAN in 1885 as part of the FEGANS group from Tunbridge Wells, arriving in Quebec on June 9th. By 1887 Frederick is with Mr A BALL at Niagara and William is with Charles E LACEY at Niagara Falls South. Later in 1887 Sarah Jane arrives in Canada and takes over management of the boys. I have found nothing about  Sarah or the boys since then.
