THis Sarah Burgham (wife of Moses) cannot be the daughter of Thomas Burgham/Burgum of Redbrook and his wife Harriet as she died in 1847. (Her death cert describes her as wife of Thomas but I think this is incorrect, she was their daughter). Moses Hawkins and Sarah Burgham ( not Bingham) were married in 1856 - I suspect her father living with them in 1881, is not Thomas Burghum the ironfounder, but another Thomas. Sarah, wife of Moses, could be the Sarah Burgham in C1851, a servant living in Abbey Orchard House and born in Newland. This family makes my temples clash!
