Sarah Austin Rex Fielding. May 1, 1810 to May 7, 1877


New gravestone (about 2012) in the Salt Lake City Cemetery.

Deseret News
May 16, 1877

Sarah's gravestone is to the left of this new Amos Fielding headstone. 
I happened upon them a couple of years ago, soon after they'd been set there.



Back side of Amos Fielding's grave stone above, indicates he was the Church's emigration agent in Liverpool England in 1851 the year Sarah sailed to America with her brother, William Rex's family.

The history of William and Sarah Rex's family and their trip to America is included in these six posts.
Part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6.

I recall my mother, Helen Rex Frazier, being concerned because she didn't know what had become of William Rex's sister, Sarah, following her brother's untimely death.
