Sarah Wild was baptised on 21st March 1742 at Radford in Nottinghamshire, daughter of Ann Wild, formerly Buck, and her husband John Wild, a farmer. When Sarah was still very small the family moved ten miles west to Ockbrook in Derbyshire, where Sarah's two younger sisters were baptised in 1744 and 1745.

The family moved again some time between 1745 and 1747, moving twenty miles east to Owthorpe in Nottinghamshire. Sarah's mother died there in 1747 when Sarah was only five years old.

The following year Sarah's father married again to Mary Capps, who thus became Sarah's stepmother. She had seven half-siblings from her father's second marriage.

On 4th May 1766, aged 24, Sarah married Richard Dexter at Owthorpe. Shortly after their marriage they left Owthorpe and moved about six miles south-east to Hose in Leicestershire, where they have five children baptised between 1767 and 1779.

Back in Owthorpe, Sarah's father died in 1770. He left Sarah one shilling, suggesting he felt he had adequately provided for her in his lifetime.

Some time between 1779 and 1792 Sarah and Richard moved again to Shelton, about 12 miles north of Hose and back in Nottinghamshire. Their eldest daughter, Betty, married a John Cuckson there in 1792.[4]
