Biography[]
Background[]
Sarah is a member of the wealthy and influential Whetstone family, and the daughter of Rear Admiral Sir William Whetstone, a neighbor and family friend of the Rogers.
Season Three[]
Sarah’s husband, Woodes, travels to Nassau with a fleet of ships intending to civilize it and have it rejoin the British Empire by pardoning the pirates. She remains in England while he does so. He brings a painting of her with him that he hangs in his bedroom in the Governor's Mansion.
Jack Rackham is imprisoned in Fort Nassau after he instructs Anne Bonny to run away with the cache of Urca gems instead of giving it to Rogers. In an attempt to coerce Bonny into giving it up, Max tells Anne that Jack is being tortured. Rogers informs Jack in his cell that Anne will soon give up the gems, and no one will be harmed. Rackham realizes that Anne was told that he was being tortured. Rackham asks if Rogers has a wife, and the governor tells him that he does. Rackham then asks how Rogers imagines she would feel if she were told that he was suffering sine awful, degrading abuse, ad the only way it would end is if she were to betray his trust. He asks Rogers how she would feel if she betrayed him, knowing that that trust was likely lost forever and then learned it was all based on a ruse. Rackham then mockingly repeats Rogers line “and no one was harmed,” and Rogers leaves in silence[1].
Rogers falls ill after his caravan transporting Rackham and the gems is ambushed. Dr. Marcus confines him to his bedroom and he holds meetings of his advisors there. However, as his fever worsens he becomes delirious. Eleanor Guthrie sequesters him in his bedroom without bothering to tell him, for he began calling Eleanor “Sarah,” and believed her to be his wife[2].
Season Four[]
As a result of his relationship with Eleanor Guthrie, Woodes Rogers informs Sarah of his desire to formally end their marriage. Rogers marries Eleanor. Despite the fact that they had hardly spoken in years, she reacted poorly. Sarah’s family intervened with several of Rogers’ larger creditors and persuaded them to accelerate the schedule for repayment. Woodes later explains to Eleanor that he faces imprisonment if they call the loans, for he would be forced to default[3].
