Still not making sense. You said Ada Pearson was born about 1822 in Jamaica. William Pearson and Sarah could not have had a daughter born in 1822.
Are you talking about the Maria Pearson who was in their household in 1851, born about 1837?
1861
Name: Ada A Driver Age: 24 Estimated birth year: abt 1837 <<< Relation: Wife Spouse's name: John Driver Where born: West Indies Civil parish: Alverstoke
John Driver 32 Ada A Driver 24 F J W Driver 12 MO
Teresa, have you read what I've said?
You are looking for the birth name of Sarah who married William Pearson.
** If you get the birth certificate of their son John ** who was born in England in abt 1856, it will give you her name.

Hi Teresa.
You have completely lost me.
How does Ada Maria Pearson Driver come into this??
Ada Maria Pearson was born c1822 in Jamaica.
But you are asking about Sarah born abt 1818 West Indies, the wife of William Pearson from Derbyshire.
What is the connection??
You said that Sarah who married William Pearson was your great-great-grandmother.
Now we have Ada Maria Pearson born abt 1822 in Jamaica, who married John Driver, being your great-great-grandmother.
Unless William Pearson born in Derbyshire had a sister Ada Maria Pearson born in Jamaica, which seems doubtful, I'm not seeing a possible connection. Even then, that would mean you had two great-great-grandparents who were siblings.
I'm completely lost. This search for the person married to William Pearson wasn't just a wild goose chase, was it?
In any case, you can find out for certain who she was by getting the birth certificate of her son John Pearson. You might have to get more than one John Pearson birth certificate to find the right one, but there shouldn't be a problem identifying it once you get it.
That will give the answer to your question of who Sarah was, and it's about the only thing that will.

In case you can't tell which John is yours, I suspect he's John Edwin. John Irwin married in Nottingham, while John Edwin married in Derby:
Marriages Mar 1875 Coleman Ellen Derby 7b 671 Fox Jane Elizabeth Derby 7b 671 Hudson Joseph Derby 7b 671 > Pearson John Edwin Derby 7b 671
1881
Name: John Edwin Pearson Age: 24 Estimated birth year: abt 1857 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Jane Pearson Where born: Nottinghamshire, England Civil parish: Normanton County/Island: Derbyshire
John Edwin Pearson 24 Jane Pearson 24 Ernest E. Pearson 6 Emma Pearson 4 Jane Pearson 2 Kate Pearson
Teresa, it would be useful to put these family members in a tree here at GR. Two people have William Pearson born 1807 Chellaston/Chelleston in their trees, for example. (Search Trees, the button up top, just look for William Pearson born 1810 +/- 5 years, Derbyshire.)

Just to note, re all of Ann o' GG's Pearson stuff in the West Indies:
Sarah Pearson was a Pearson *by marriage*.
Her Pearson husband was from Derbyshire.
So I doubt that *any* Pearson in the West Indies was at all related to either of them -- other than their own marriage and child(ren)'s birth(s).

Oh - Teresa, my email tells me you have sent me a private message, but unfortunately my inbox function here is not working, once again, so I can't read it.
Always always reply in the thread though, not by private message. Most of us really hate having to go somewhere else to find info, and then it just has to be brought back and put in the thread anyway, where it's useful. It's of no use in my inbox!
So just add a message here.
... Ah, it finally worked. Don't fret about the multiple threads, two dozen people a day do it. Now you know -- just do delete the other one.

Found them in 1881 by William's occupation, Chelsea Pensioner.
William Pearson 70 Sarah Pearson 66 Mary Jane Hewitt 40 Samuel Hewitt 43 Sarah Jane Hewitt 12 Samuel Hewitt 9 Civil parish: Nottingham St Mary County/Island: Nottinghamshire
Name: Mary Jane Hewitt [Mary Jane Pearson] Age: 40 Estimated birth year: abt 1841 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: William Pearson Mother's Name: Sarah Pearson >> Where born: Nova Scotia Halifax
If that's accurate, and I suspect it is, unfortunately NS birth records on line don't go back that far:
https://www.novascotiagenealogy.com/
Name: Sarah Pearson Age: 66 Estimated birth year: abt 1815 Relation: Wife Spouse's name: William Pearson Gender: Female Where born: Sucia, West Indies
It does say "Sucia" on the image. I would imagine it's St Lucia.
1861
William Pearson 50 Sarah Pearson 46 - born West Indies, Br Sub Wallm H Pearson 11 - born West Indies John Pearson 4
Civil parish: St Mary Town: Nottingham County/Island: Nottinghamshire Registration district: Nottingham
Name: John Pearson Age: 4 Estimated birth year: abt 1857 Relation: Son Father's Name: William Pearson Mother's Name: Sarah Pearson Where born: Nottinghamshire, England
Either of these would match John's age:
Births Sep 1856 Pearson John Edwin Nottingham 7b 195 Births Dec 1856 Pearson John Irwin Nottingham 7b 218
If you know the name of the woman your John Pearson married, you could check his middle name on his marriage record, at FreeBMD:
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl
Or maybe you know it?
Once ihs birth is established, his birth certificate will give you Sarah's name.

Teresa -- you're doing fine -- but check for questions! You know things we don't, and we need to know what you know.
I can't find a single one of these people in 1861 or 1871. The daughters may have married by 1861, but I can't find a Jane or Maria in Derbyshire with any place of birth like theirs.
Do you know where they were after 1851?
Do you know whether there were any more children born after 1851?
Which of the childen is your ancestor, and where/when/whom did he/she marry?

Where are they all in 1861?? Can't find 'em in a census.
The question is whether they had any children after 1851, in England. If so, the child's birth certificate would give Sarah's birth surname.
Dorothy Teresa, please do delete your other thread, as asked there. It's already produced duplication of effort. Just click on "My threads" on the left of your screen to find it, click on it, and click Delete in the lower left of the first post.
