Sarah was born on April 12th, 1884 in Birkenhead.1
Birth Notes
1891 census records Sarah as being born in Bolton. However, the BMD birth record is at Birkenhead. This is consistent with the family moving to Birkenhead in mid 1884, and the birth was registered there, after they moved.
In 1901, they are back in Bolton, living with older sister Hannah, and the records shows Sarah E and Margaret H were born in Birkenhead.

Sarah Ellen married Alfred Hunt, a plumber, in 1908. They emigrated to Toronto, Canada where they had a good life for a few years until they were probably persuaded by her father James Hunt to return in 1913. A terrible mistake. Another grim time followed marked by extreme poverty. Of their 5 children Ruth, Jim and Nell were born in Canada and the younger 2 Alfred and Lilian (still alive and has provided some of the above information) in Bolton.
