[Copy on File] (11) Marriage Register - Middlesex, (Copy on File) Event Notes Note (1) Thomas's name appears as the father of Sarah Young (nee King) on the Assisted Immigrants Board List for the Ship "Vocalist" 1857. Death Certificate of daughter Sarah Young (nee King) has her fathers name as Thomas King. Note (2) Death Certificate of daughter Sarah Young (nee King) has her fathers occupation as a Gardener. Note (3) Elizabeth Novell was still living in Twickenham England at the time of her daughter Sarahs emmigration to Australia. Note (4) Also on this Census is a mention to a Jane Young age 3, this cannot be Sarah's daughter as she was already married to James Grant. It could be one of her eldest daughters child from her first marriage to William Young. Jane Young has not been entered into the database as at 10/03/07 as I cannot make a connection. Note (5) Sarah King married William Young in 1821, William Young was convicted of a crime and sentenced to seven years transportation to Australia in 1832. Sarah remarried to James Grant in 1834. James Grant passed away and Sarah and two of her children Eliza Ann and Elizabeth (Betsy) from her marriage to James Grant then sailed to Australia to join her first husband William. Apparently it was legal to re-marry if your husband was sentenced to seven years or more in the Colonies Immigrated with her two daughters Eliza Ann Grant and Elizabeth (Betsy) Grant. Betsy's surname appears as Young on the Immigrants list. Husband William Young was living in Sydney NSW when she arrived.

The informant for her death certificate was William Young, husband, of Milsons Point. None of the children born to Sarah and James Grant are listed on the death certificate. Note (7) Headstone Inscription - Could not find any Headstone The cemetery was changed when an expressway passed thru the area and many headstones were removed. Note (8) The bride Sarah Young (nee King) is noted as being a "Widow". Her first husband, William Young was actually still alive but had been transported to Australia as a Convict. Apparently a wife could remarry if her husband had been transported as a Convict for seven years or more. Note (9) Middlesex Marriage Index William Young and Sarah King, 1834. Point of interest is Sarah King married William Young in 1821, William Young was convicted of a crime and sentenced to seven years transportation to Australia. Sarah remarried to James Grant in 1834. James Grant passed away and Sarah and two of her children then sailed to Australia to join her first husband William. Apparently it was legal to re-marry if your husband was sentenced to seven years or more in the Colonies.
