General Notes
- 18 Mar 1876, Sarah Jane Mather (19) of 2 Yates Square, daughter of Henry married William Hutchinson, but by 1881 Sarah (23) was back with her father and baby Henry, aged 3. Did William leave her, or did he die?
  
  After 1871 the trail goes cold. She didnt marry Henry Reeve in 1890, as that was the daughter of George.
  
  Sarah Jane emigrated to Winnipeg, Canada. A 1919 record shows her born in Bolton and of Canadian nationality. Her nearest Relative in Canada was her step-son Geo W (Hutchinson) of 58 Mathewson Ave, Winnipeg. However, she was travelling with Arthur Hutchinson in 1920.
