Louise
I am descended from Sarah and James Egan (Hagan) who migrated to Australia 'assisted passage' on 19 Oct 1838 with two sons William and James. James was my grandmother's father. They had several more children one of whom was the person you are researching - Sarah. I have basic information about Sarah as I am not pursuing her line.

SARAH ANN EGAN (21 )married George Francis Proctor 28th September 1864 C of E Church, Wellington (both illiterate)
Children              Female              Born 1865
                     Mathew              Born 1867
                     Francis G       Born 1868
                     Sarah M              Born 1870
                     Margaret A       Born 1872
                     Emmaline       Born 1874/Died 1875
                     Ellen              Born 1876/Died 1876
Sarah              died 20.3.1876 (31) Wellington
              Cause of death: childbirth (6 days)
              Buried: 22.3.1876 Wellington
surviving children: 2 males, 3 females (2 females deceased)
Informant: George Proctor-husband (illiterate)
George       Possibly died 1888

Hope this helps a little with your research.

This is also a little snippet that has been sent to me.

'Sometime during the late 1940’s Matilda’s children received an inheritance (I cannot remember if it was fifteen or forty pounds each) from the estate of George Proctor. I do not know when or where he died, but think it took some years, and some referral back to Ireland before his estate was finalised.' Matilda was a sister to Sarah.
