Hi Sue

For clarification

Sarah REYNOLDS b 1832 Where Born ?
Parents Patrick REYNOLDS & Sarah HART
Sarah Travelled to Australia in 1854.
Married Patrick CUMMINS
93/1857 CUMMINS PATRICK REYNOLDS SARAH SYDNEY

Births to Patrick & Sarah ( my Guess)
Reg No Last Name Given Names Fathers Given Names District
3566/1862 Cummins Mary Patrick Sarah Paddington
3629/1864 Cummins Christopher W Patrick Sarah Paddington
4286/1867 Cummins Michael Patrick Sarah Paddington
Paddington being a suburb of Sydney.

Deaths NSW BDM
3243/1867 CUMMINS MICHAEL PATRICK SARAH PADDINGTON
2176/1863 CUMMINS MARY PATRICK SARAH PADDINGTON
1964/1865 CUMMINS CHRISTOPHER I PATRICK SARAH PADDINGTON
2268/1868 CUMMINS PATRICK JAMES SARAH PADDINGTON

Going with these dates it would appear that Sarah lost all Children & her Husband

Death notice Sydney Morning Herald Saturday 4th July 1868FUNERAL.—The Friends of the late Mr. PATRICK CUMMINS are respectfully invited to attend his Funeral, THIS (Saturday) AFTERNOON ; to move from his late residence, Denison-street, Woollahra, at a quarter- past 2 o'clock precisely. THOMAS DIXON, Under- taker, South Head Road.
.Wollahra being the suburb next to Paddington


There is this Marriage which fits names you have.
2420/1881 DOWNEY MALCHI CUMMINS MARY WOOLLAHRA
I would have said Patrick & Sarahs Daughter ?

There were a lot of CUMMINS in Sydney at the time.
You Would need Certificates to confirm anything.
I would start with Patricks Death Certificate.


Cheers
My Thoughts on this family

Hi Sue
sadly
there is a registration Number 3212/1882 for a death
Cummins Sarah
age 68 years. Died Petersham. District Petersham.

ps. Petersham is a suburb in Sydney.

you could look for burials in Petersham to see if this is your Sarah.
also found the above which Mel75 has given you.

Sue,

The information that you gave, about Mary Cummins would be Patricks sister, not Sarah's

There are a number of births born to Patrick & Sarah Cummins in New South Wales, do you know which are yours

Reg No Last Name Given Names Fathers Given Names District

12500/1859 Cummins James Patrick Sarah Shoalhaven

12203/1860 Cummins Patrick J Patric Sarah Shoalhaven

3566/1862 Cummins Mary Patrick Sarah Paddington

3629/1864 Cummins Christopher W Patrick Sarah Paddington

4286/1867 Cummins Michael Patrick Sarah Paddington

6328/1868 Cummins Thomas Patrick Sarah Bathurst

6893/1871 Cummins Albert L Patrick Sarah Bathurst

17555/1876 Cummins William J Patrick Sarah Orange

19302/1878 Cummins Patrick Patrick Sarah Orange

27745/1881 Cummins James Patrick Sarah Wellington

12754/1883 Cummins Ernest Patrick Sarah Dubbo

If you have any ideas where they were living, this would also help. It is best to give any information that might help find your Sarah.
