Sarah Osborn (1820 – 1890)

 

Sarah was born 13 January 1820 and baptised 19 January 1820 at St Andrew Holborn, a daughter of Henry Osborn (Grays Inn Terrace, stable keeper) and Elizabeth. 

 

It is probable that she did not marry.

 

In the various censuses she is found as follows:

In 1851, Sarah Osborne was living with her aunt and uncle, Elizabeth and William Lee at Sicclesmere.  She was unmarried, aged 30 and born in London Middx.  She was supported by her uncle (sic, but probably her father) Middlesex.

In 1861, Sarah Osborne was living with her aunt and uncle, Elizabeth and William Lee at Hawstead Lane , Great Whelnetham.  She was unmarried, aged 39, an imbecile and born at Grays Inn, Holborn.

In 1871, Sarah Osborne was living with her aunt and uncle, Elizabeth and William Lee at Cottage, Great Whelnetham, probably Sicklesmere.  She was unmarried, aged 50 and born in Grays Inn, London. 

In 1881, (Transcript), she was a lodger with Elizabeth Lee (her aunt) in Hawstead Lane, Great Whelnetham, Suffolk.  Sarah Osborne was aged 57 and single and born in London, Middx.

 

It seems she continued to live in Great Whelnetham since there is the burial of Sarah Osbourne 20 April 1890 at Great Whelnetham.  She was aged 70.
