Sarah Richards

Birth: Jun. 19, 1735 Death: unknown Hampstead Carroll County Maryland, USA

Sarah was born, the daughter of Samuel and Sarah Hooker, in old Baltimore County while her parents were associated with the Gunpowder Meeting of Friends in present-day Cockeysville MD. The Hookers were Quakers, as were the Richards. This was a time when Quaker Meetings were being established along the frontier of Maryland.

The Richards had emigrated from England into old Baltimore County before 1710. In 1729 they joined with the Gunpowder Meeting, where Richard and Sarah may have met.

Sarah married Richard Richards, son of Edward Richards and Mary Head, on July 14 1754.
