Sarah (nee unknown) was born circa 1795[1], probably in or near Benington, Hertfordshire, England[2] or possibly Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, England[3].
Sarah married George Bynoth (also Biner or Bynorth), a labourer from Cheshunt, some time before June 1817, probably in Hertfordshire. They had 6 children:
Sarah's husband, George, died in 1832.
On the 6th of June 1841, Sarah was living with her sons George and Joseph, both agricultural labourers, at Hammond Street in Cheshunt[4]. They lived alongside Thomas and Ann Jest, as well as Susan and Maria Parker[4].

On the 30th of March 1851, Sarah and her son George were paupers living at Cheshunt Common in Cheshunt[2]. George's age was recorded incorrectly on the census; he would have been closer to 30 rather than 40.

Sarah Bynorth | Head | Widowed | F | 60 | Pauper | Bennington, Hertfordshire, England |
George Bynorth | Son | Unmarried | M | 40 | Pauper | Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, England |
On the 7th of April 1861, Sarah was resident at Hammond Street in Cheshunt with her son George and her grandsons, Amos Chandler and Henry "Harry" Chandler[3], sons of her daughter Mary Ann. George was an agricultural labourer, Amos was a shepherd boy, and Harry was a carter[3].

Amos Chandler | Grandson | M | 13 | Shephard boy | Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, England | |

Sarah died at about 74 years of age and her death was registered in the 2nd quarter of 1869 in the registration district of Edmonton[1]. The Edmonton district contains the town of Cheshunt, which is very likely where she died.
Marriage and LNAB:
I have been as yet unable to determine Sarah's LNAB. I cannot find a marriage between George Byner/Biner/Bynorth/Bynoth and Sarah before 1817 in or near Cheshunt or anywhere in Hertfordshire after extensive searching on FindMyPast. There is, however, a marriage between a George Bynoth/Bynath and an Elizabeth Pratton/Prattan on the 1st of December 1816 in Cheshunt, witnessed by Jane Jackson and Edward Coe. Is it possible this Elizabeth is the same person as Sarah, but she just had a name change? Evans-33937 06:36, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
I have tried to trace the George and Elizabeth couple forward but cannot see any baptisms for children of theirs' in Hertfordshire, only children of George and Sarah. I also can't see a burial for an Elizabeth Bynoth (or variants) in Cheshunt. Searching done on FindMypast. Evans-33937 06:57, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
