Thanks for Sarah Sawyer but i dont think she is Richards mother as i have a marriage entry for her at Leigh Surrey in 1808 marring a James Briggs http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp. So i would say that would rule her out

Hi Darkcrystal I have found Richard Sawyer in the census's of 1841, 1851, 1861, so it appears he died between 1861 and 1871 interestingly he is living away from the family in 1861 http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1861&h=6907063&ti=5538&indiv=try&gss=pt . Thanks for the help...

I know Marys MN was Miller from John Sawyers birth certificate. But im a little stuck now as i cant find any record of Richards birth hes out there somewhere :)

I dont know when he married unfortunately i do not know when Richard married Mary Miller bus as the youngest son was born abt 1838 its quite probable the married before 1837 so may not be able to find a marriage certificate. I havnt searched for other Sawyer's born in Newdigate throughly as yet.
