Sarah was born "at home" (not in a hospital), in Fairmont, WV. Her father worked as an engineer for the State of West Virginia, and the family moved around somewhat. She attended high school in Sutton, WV, living just two houses away from the school. She lived at home while she went to college. Getting her through school was a family affair - many relatives helped out. During the summer, she worked for the sherrif's office, typing tax forms and the such, earning $16 per month. In her papers was a cancelled check, written in pencil, for one dollar. She graduated, and went on to earn a Masters Degree, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV, in 1939. While a student, she learned to fly and earned a pilots license (no small feat for a woman in those days).

A newspaper article, undated, containing her photograph, published just after her graduation in June 1939, says: "Miss Betty Bailey left yesterday afteroon for Wadestown where she has accepted a position as an Instructor of Mathematics and of the Boys and Girls Glee club in the high school. Miss Bailey, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Bailey of Spruce street, was graduated from the University in June."

She taught school in Fairmont, WV, and then later taught in Morgantown. When WW II came along, she worked for G-2, a precursor of the CIA, in Miami Beach, assigned to the South American Bureau. A newspaper article dated Sunday, July 26, 1942, which appeared in The Sunday Times-West Virginian, Fairmont, W. Va., which carries her picture, says: "Miss Bailey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Bailey, former local residents now of Morgantown has one to Washington, D. C., where she will be a research analyst for the U.S. War department. She had taught in the Morgantown High school."

She applied for the Womens Air Service Pilots program and was accepted. She reported for duty at Sweetwater, TX. When she washed out (because she couldn't fly the larger craft), she taught aeronautical navigation. When the war ended, she came to Washington, DC, and taught. It was in her classroom that she met Kenneth R. Williams. They married in 1947. In 1952, she went to work for the National Security Agency at Arlington Hall Station in Arlington, VA, responsible for their first computer. She retired in 1979.

She died as the result of a car accident which occurred in Hudson, Pasco County, FL, while on vacation. She was a passenger in a car with Anne Hunninghaus Graham (her husband Kenneth's first cousin). Annie was killed instantly. Sarah was medivaced in a heliocopter to the Bay Front Trauma Center where she died a short time later. Her remains are interred in the Columbarium at Arlington National Cemetery.
