Biography

• Sarah Devitt was born September 25, 1858 in Canada
• She was the daughter of Dennis Devitt and Magdalina Keller
• In the 1861 census, Sarah and 2 siblings seem disconnected from their family. They aren't listed as living with their parents, older siblings, or neighbors. Their older brother is listed in the census next to them, but says they weren't living in his household. I am assuming they were living with their oldest brother David, since they were too young to be on their own.
• She married Charles Seibert May 11 1875 in Ontario, Canada
• Children

Had a child named Maryann living with them in 1885, but the census did not tell the relationship.

All other census records say they didn't have children

• She died February 9, 1922 in Oregon, USA
