Sarah
Stone learned midwifery in Bristol from her mother, also a midwife. Sarah's
husband was probably an apothecary. She believed that midwives should learn
as much as possible about anatomy and other medical knowledge. Working in
London, she taught her daughter who carried on in her mother's footsteps.
