Sarah Bell

Sarah Bell, née Danby (1803–85), was born in London, England. After migrating to New South Wales, she married George Bell (1805–1852)at Bullhill, near Liverpool, New South Wales, in 1834. The couple had three children—Sarah Jane (1836), Walter Stephen (1837) and Anne Danby (1839)—before relocating to Launceston, Van Diemen’s Land, in 1839 in order to operate a school. Anne Danby Bell died in Launceston in January 1840, but the couple had their youngest child, George Renison Bell, at Bothwell later that year. Sarah’s husband, George Bell, died in Hobart Town in 1852. In January 1855 her elder son, seventeen-year-old Walter, was sent to live at Port Arthur in hope of improving his health.From: https://nichaygarth.com/index.php/2018/09/01/sarah-bell-visits-comptroller-general-of-convicts-josiah-spode-1855/
