About Sarah Richards

Born 7th Oct 1830 in Grahamstown. Baptised 8 Dec 1830 Methodist records entry 208

Probably died in childhood: No mention in father Joseph's 22 Oct 1841 Death Notice. Also not mentioned in mothers death notice in 1890. Previously erroneously linked to Sarah Stockenstrom born Richards,but in Mossel Bay to different parents, Sarah Stockenstrom's death notice on Family search gives her date of death as 26th July 1904 and age at death as 36 years and 2 months. This means she would have been born in May 1868. Parents are given as Richard and Elena.

Error appears on a 1820 Settlers website where her date of death is given as 1904. This was Sarah Stockenstrom's date of death.
