There she is treated by a doctor and the man who hit her. The driver, a businessman, named Marcus Ryan nurses her back to health. The death of her husband leaves his cousin owning her home and she soon finds she had nowhere to go. However the cousin has her arrested for theft and she finds herself on a convict ship to New South Wales. The man who hit her is her only hope and she sends her servants to him for assistance. Marcus follows her and they end up in the tiny coal mining town of Newcastle. He promises never to leave her, but he has to travel for his business, then he vanishes.; Sara Powter was born on the NSW Central Coast in 1959.
