Sarah Black

Sarah Black (née Wilde) is the deceased mother of Rachel, Rebecca and Jacob Black, and wife of Billy Black. She is also the granddaughter of Quil Ateara II, the niece of Quil Ateara III, the first cousin of Quil Ateara IV and the aunt of Quil Ateara V.

History
Not much is known of Sarah, as she is rarely mentioned in the books. She is known to have died in a car accident some time during Jacob's childhood, and her body was so mangled that her coffin was nailed shut. Rebecca and Rachel took the news of their mother's death so badly that they were unable to stay at La Push for long, the reservation containing too many painful memories.
