Hi Yvonne.
In my records Sarah Ann was born in Cardiff in 1858. Mother and father were Joseph Nippers (b. Sherston Wilts 1823) and Carolyn Rymell (b.Westport Wilts 1823). Grandparents were George Nippers (b.Foxley Wilts 1782) and Rachel Lewis (b.Sherston Wilts 1793).
In the 1800's George and Rachel's children came to Cardiff, Merthyr and Abercarn following the new work in coal, steel and tin. Previously most of the family had worked on farms around Malmebury in Wiltshire but come the industrial revolution they came to Wales and subsequently some went to Yorkshire.
Most of the family are now resident in Wales (Cardiff and Newport)and Yorkshire(Barnsley, Hemsworth and Pontefract)but there are outliers in Canada and Australia.
