This looks about the right age at death as she is listed as 22 in 1871

Could this be Frederick ?
If so he's a widower in 1881

Thank you .

You have come up with Sarah Ann marrying in 1903.
I was told by someone else researching the Chown family that they had found a Sarah Ann marrying in 1895 to a Prout or Shepherd but I can not find anything.
