Sarah Rogers

Sister of Mary Ann Rogers (q.v.).

1. Both Sarah and Mary Ann Rogers were listed in the 1851 census as born in Demerara and unmarried. Their household consisted of the two of them and three female servants. Note that the address (85 Cadogan Place) was different from that recorded in T71/1610: letter, dated 30/10/1835 concerning claim British Guiana 576A-D which was 2 Cadogan Place. Neither sister is listed for Cadogan Place in the 1841 census.

2. Sarah appears to have lived at 85 Cadogan Place between 1849 (and possibly earlier) and 1872. A Sarah Rogers is listed (as is Mary Ann Rogers) in the London Gazette as a shareholder (partner) in the London and Westminster Bank between 1849 and 1876 although her address is given variously as 80, 85 Cadogan Place and 74 Baker Street.

3. Will of Sarah Rogers of 85 Cadogan Place who died 23/08/1876 proved 03/11/1876, effects under £25,000. One of the executors was her niece Emily Anne Valpy, wife of Richard Valpy. She was the daughter of Daniel Sutton the younger (q.v.), by implication either the half-brother or more likely the brother-in-law of Sarah and Mary Ann Rogers.
