Sarah Bradley Ayer

1809 - 1895  (85 years)

• Name	Sarah Bradley Ayer  [1, 2, 3, 4]
  Born	2 Apr 1809	Haverhill, Massachusetts
  Gender	Female
  Name	Sarah Bradley Black
  Biography	According to the censuses, her husband was a shoemaker and she was a tayloress. I don't believe she had any children, at least none that survived. In Reminiscences, her brother Ira said of her: In the balance of my writing may be found the names of Sarah Black11 Ira Ayer and family. Mrs. Sarah Black experienced religion soon after the return of her Sister Martha from Hamburg. Sarah had a full benefit of Martha's experience which was a great help to her. Martha told her that faith and repentance was the ground work to build on, though in the days of early youth, she seemed to understand the way, and embraced it as a foundation, to build for her present good and everlasting welfare. Sister Sarah Black proved to be a sister in the church well fitted to fill every place where she could do good. Her seat would be filled at the preaching, her voice would be heard at the prayer meeting; and at the class meeting. She had a good story to tell. Her motto was, it must be done; her exhortation was to her Brethren and Sisters onward. If Meeting House was to be built, or buildings to be repaired, she and her worthy husband Joe Black, also a devoted Christian were always ready to share her portion of the expense and a little more. She is now seventy eight years of age, ready to go when the Master calls.
