Sarah Scarvell, nee Redmond (1809-1873), was born in Sydney, N.S.W., the second daughter of emancipists Edward Redmond (1766?-1840) and Winefred Redmond, nee Dowling (1775?-1861). Winefred married Edward Redmond, her second husband, in 1811. They had two daughters, Mary (b. 1807) and Sarah. Winefred's son from her first marriage Jean de Riveau (b. 1803) became known as John Redmond.
Sarah married Captain John Larking Scarvell (1791-1861) at St James's Church, Sydney, in March 1828. It was the second marriage for Captain Scarvell. His first wife, Isabella (nee Campbell), had died at sea and was buried in St Philip's Church, Sydney, in January 1828. Captain Scarvell retired from the East India Company shortly after his marriage to Sarah and they resided at Clare House (Killarney), in Oakville, N.S.W.. They had ten children, of whom eight survived infancy.
In 1855 John Scarvell commissioned artist Richard Noble to paint individual portraits of his family. Over the course of the year while residing at Clare House, Noble completed portraits of Sarah and John Larking Scarvell (ML 1250), and the six eldest Scarvell children: John Redmond Barnes (1830-1855) (ML 1194); Sidney (1832-1875); George (1834-1877); Edward Augustus (1835-1883); Sarah Winefred Isabella Mary (1837-1929) (ML 1339); and Elizabeth Mary (1840-1907) (ML 1195).
Sarah Scarvell died in July 1873 at her residence Leswell, in Edgecliff Road, aged 64 years.
