Sarah Catherine was the daughter of Canadian parents: John McDonald, born in Nova Scotia, and Mary Bannon, born in New Brunswick. Her father was a railroad mechanic and blacksmith and Sarah was born in Davenport, IA, as the railroad assignments seemed to going from East to West. She had a brother, Michael, born in Detroit, and a sister, Mary Margaret ("Minnie"), born in Minneapolis. Following the birth of Sarah Catherine, the family resided in Omaha, NE; Winthrop, MO; Albuquerque, NM; National City, CA; and, finally, Highland, CA. In 1895, she married Joseph Francis Brass Devin, in San Bernardino, CA. Somehow Sarah was able to escape the consumption that brought an early death to her older brother and sister (she also lost a younger infant brother in Omaha). Sarah was the only one of her parents' four children to marry and have a family of her own. She gave birth to six children, with four living to adulthood: Mary Alice, Joseph McDonald (Don), Stephen Bernard, and Eleanor Sarah. Sarah was prominent in both the Catholic Church and Democratic politics in Southern California, serving as President of The Catholic Woman's Club of Los Angeles in 1927.
