FAMILY HISTORY: NORRIS

THE LIFE OF SARAH ANN BRETHERTON:

 

Sarah Ann Bretherton, the first daughter of William and Nancy Bretherton, never married. She was a witness to the weddings of both of her surviving brothers and it is the wedding of her brother James in 1906 that is the last record I have of her until her burial in the churchyard of St Peter's Church in Chorley.

"In the Midst of Life We Are in Death
In Loving Memory of...
...Also Sarah Ann, daughter of the above,
who died April 2nd 1950, aged 81 years.
Thy Will be Done"

 

NOTES:
1: The above partial monument inscription is from the headstone of her parents at St Peter's Church.
2: The above information is taken from various records held at the Lancashire Record Office in Preston.
