She is recorded in the 1841 England census as Sarah Furmidge, age 4, with her mother, Sarah Furmidge, and grandparents at Wootton Bridge, Hampshire (Class: HO107, Piece: 405, Folio: 18, Page: 7. Note: relationships are not recorded in the 1841 census). She was baptised in 1844 at St Mary’s, Carisbrooke, Hampshire and recorded as Sarah Furmidge daughter of Sarah Furmidge, single woman. Her (step-)brother James Meguyer was baptised on the same day with his parents recorded as James & Sarah Meguyer. In the 1851 England census she is recorded as Sarah Meguyer (Carisbrooke, Isle of Wight: Class: HO107, Piece: 1663, Folio: 182, Page: 28) and she is also recorded as Sarah Maguyer or Meguyer on her marriage record in 1866.
