      In the 1900 census, she was a widow living in the M precinct of Seward County, Nebraska. Living with her were five of her children. She is shown as having had 9 children, 6 still living. She had no occupation but is shown as owning her farm, albeit with a mortgage.

      In the 1907 city directory of Lincoln, Nebraska, she was Sarah J Dyer, widow of Barton N, residing at 436 S 10th.

      She is not listed in the 1908 Lincoln city directory.

      In the 1909 Lincoln directory, she is Sarah Dyer, widow of Barton, residing at 1502 N 27th with her daughter Carrie Dyer, mangle girl.

      In the 1910 Lincoln directory, she is Sarah J Dyer, widow of Barton N, residing at 2009 R with her daughter Carrie.

      In the 1920 census, she seems to be Sarah Galbraith, age 62, wife of Charley, living in Gosper County next to William Dyer, 61, his wife Carrie, and their children. (Presumably, William is a brother of Sarah’s first husband.) Living with Sarah and Charley is Mamie W Duffy, age 12, grand-daughter. Mamie was born in Nebraska.
