Sarah Wallworth Brereton

[The Man from the East]

Hi!
 Sarah Wallworth  Brereton, Nee' Smith was my Great,Great, Grandmother. She died on 21 June 1868. Her last know residence was No 2 Hulton Street Moss Side, County Lancashire.
One of her daughter's Kate, with her elder brother Randle immigrated to South Africa shortly after her passing.
 She had a brother Dr.Joseph Smith
 Kate was my Great,Grandmother & married a Bloemfontein Orange Free State resident, Alfred Barlow previously of Essex. Alfred Barlow was my Gr.Grandfather.
 I have done quite a lot of work on the Barlow side of the family in collaboration with some Barlow  cousins but have hit a Cul de Sac with GGM. Wallworth Brereton Nee'  Smith. I would be interested to collaborate with any living relatives who can help with the research. Thanks for reading this. "The Man from the East''.

Welcome to RootsChat!

The GRO website confirms Sarah as age 52 when she died.
So that makes her birth about 1816?

Thank you! Her ''Will''names her son as Randle and not Randall as was her fathers name ? I think this seems to be rather a universal problem with  Randy's (Non pun intended.)
 Are you one of the family or a  very kind wizard?

I'm not connected with the family.
Just a normal RootsChat member who, like a lot of others, enjoys helping people.
