There is no history on the internet of the sisters Sarah and Margaret Kirkby who died around 1798. They were most likely from a well-off family, because this 22k gold ring with blue enamel wouldn't have been within everyone's budget. Hallmarks with King George's face and the lion passant appear inside, plus a date letter for 1798. What tragedy happened to these sisters, I wonder?
