Over 150 years old, the autograph Album of Sarah Dobbs containing beautifully handwritten poems, dating from 1862 to 1871, is a remarkable and fascinating document of the Victorian age. By steamship it made its way from Wales, UK, to the USA around 1868 as its owner Sarah Dobbs immigrated as one of the early pioneers to Kansas, USA. This book contains all Album entries, for better reading they were transcribed and where possible identified. The author also added a genealogy research, underlined by newspaper articles which were all transcribed, of Sarah Dobbs, her family and the family of her husband Henry Poolly Cooper. Before their immigration to the USA both of them lived in Chepstow, Monmouthshire, Wales, UK. Sarah Dobbs as innkeeper daughter of the White Hart Inn, Beaufort Square, Chepstow, Wales, UK.
