Notes:
 Sarah's birth was registered on 28 Jan 1850.  Her mother, Priscilla Ward, nee
 Coverdale signed with an X.

 There appears to be no Sarah Ann Ward in the 1861 census, however, there is a Sarah Wade,
 a servant at a farm in Farndale, south of Guisborough, who is about the right
 age, and born in Stokesley.  There is no Sarah Wade in the 1851 Stokesley
 census, and also, apparently no record of a Sarah Wade born in Stokesley
 around 1849-1850, so it is quite likely this is our Sarah.


 The 1900 census indicates she had had 7 children, 4 of whom were living.
 The seventh child is probably
 Priscilla Swales, christened 13 May 1878, died Sep quarter of 1878,
 age 0, but might also be
 Sarah Ann Swales, who died in the Sep quarter of 1884, age 1.

 Sarah's cause of death is listed as Lobar Pneumonia.
