She was a widow, so her husband was a Chamberlin. I briefly checked earlier census records and didn't locate her, but I'd suggest that you check the 1910 and earlier census listings for her. Also check San Francisco death records after 1930. - 1920 Census, #1146 Mission St., #10/32, San Francisco Assembly District 21, San Francisco Co., CA, Sarah Chamberlin, partner, b. age 69, widow, hotel keeper, KY/NY/NY. Listed as the household head and hotel keeper is J. C. Harris, age 51, single, NJ/NJ/NJ, obviously unrelated - 1930 Census, San Francisco, CA, Farralone Apartments, Block 192, Sarah E. Chamberlin, head, age 80, widow, $45, no occupation, KY/NY/NY; Grizzy A. Lawson, cousin, divorced, age 63, no occupation, MI/ENG/MI
