Sarah's father was Richard Mather and her mother was Betsy Lee. Her paternal grandparents were Richard Mather and Hannah Knowles. She had a sister named Elizabeth. She had a foster sister named Elizabeth. She had three half-brothers and six half-sisters, named Robert, John, William, Ann, Hannah, Martha, Alice, Mary and Ellen. She died at the age of 1 in September 1857 in Radcliffe.²

Death Notes
- Sarah Jane probably had died by 1861 as not with family. There is no Bolton death, but a death at Radcliffe, in 1857 Bury of the correct age. Is is quite likely her, as there was no corresponding Bury birth in 1856 for another child.
