Sarah Taylor (nee Sutton). Sarah had come to Australia at the age of two with her parents, Michael and Martha Sutton, from Lincolnshire in England. She married John Sutton, also an immigrant from Lincolnshire, and they had a farm in Bluchers Road, Rowville. When John became a cripple, Sarah – although a tiny person – took on all the heavy tasks that have to be done on a farm including slaughtering the animals and dressing the meat for the butchers she supplied in Prahran. She was a much loved person in Rowville and the dusty road that ran past their farm had its name changed from Bluchers Road to Taylors Lane in honour of her and her family. Sarah lived to be 92.
