I think you need to confirm the parents' names somehow. If Sarah was born in Brompton then you could check the baptism records on Cityark - Medway's site - the parish records are on line. They are searchable by parish so you may need to trawl around the Brompton area as I expect there are a few churches but it might help locate the marriage of the parents.

The infomation on the death cert is only as good as informant knows

Think you need to purchase that birth cert if you think that is her... but they were still in the uk in 1861
