Daughter of Samuel Asken & Jane Dornan

Occupation: servant (per 1871 census, Fergus)

Cause of death: Typhoid Fever

Informant on death record: Jane Harrison

Sarah's gravestone was leaning against the north-west fence of Belsyde Cemetery, seemingly neglected amongst the tall grass and tree branches.

The 1992 cemetery transcript incorrectly shows her year of death as 1821 instead of 1871 and her age as 19 yrs, 2 mos, 11 days (should be 14 days) Verified from photo and original 1883 transcript by A. D. Fordyce.

Inscription

A loved one is gone from our circle, on earth we will meet her no more: She has gone to her home in heaven, and all her afflictions are o'er.
