Burmese girls, and managed her household and cared for her
husband during his 18 month imprisonment in 1824-25. When
home in the United States briefly in 1822 because of ill health,
she wrote a history of the Burmese work titled American Baptist
Mission to the Burman Empire, which was published in 1823. She
died October 24, 1826, at the age of thirty-seven. Both a son, Roger

at Tavoy to work with a mountain tribe (Karens), where she founded
a school for girls. Her husband died in 1831, and she continued
the work with her small son, George. Sarah married Adoniram in
1834, nearly eight years after the death of Ann Judson. During
