Thanks again for your help. I'll try and track down the prison records for Matilda (if they exist) and see if there is any mention as to what happened to her baby. Certainly, she did not have it with her in Woking women's prison where she found herself in 1891 and it wasn't with its Grandfather and his wife. |

The only one that can't be accounted for is Herbert. I can't find a death for him or see him on any censuses. Perhaps he was Matilda's son and then adopted? |

St. James's Walk, Clerkenwell was in the Clerkenwell registration district but this was succeeded by Holborn registration district in 1869. |

I've been advised that I haven't been responding appropriately and that instead of responding directly to the person who posted a response by clicking on their name and sending them a personal message, that I should be thanking and acknowledging people publicly in the thread. So, sorry for that lapse in etiquette and for the irritation and annoyance that this has caused. That was not my intent. I very much value all the responses that I have received. |

I think it was previously Holborn (Clerkenwell was, and that is the area you specify). |

My ancestor, Matilda Rider (aka Ann Matilda Ryder) was awaiting trial at the Old Bailey on 25/5/1884 in Her Majesty's Prison, St. James Walk; Clerkenwell London from 26/3/1884. At the beginning of her incarceration, she was 8 months pregnant, and was apparently 'confined' on 8 April 1884 (which presumably is the date she gave birth). Does anyone know what the registration district was for this prison at this time, because I am having trouble locating the birth record for this child. Thank you |
