Here are some of her records.
Some notes and letters that were to her
I would love to know her whole story, when did her father die and what happened to her to steal things and get herself into so much trouble, did she have a mental illness? I see in the documents her mother was also a servant and it must be said that she was well liked by her employer who went out of his way to write an inquiry about Sarah and wanting to see her on behalf off her mother.
All these records are were found on Ancestry, they have many criminal records. I made Sarah a tree and hope to get some hints that will reveal more of her life for us to see.
