Where was it Anna? I found a rele recently who had been in prison during the 1800s. The local register office has a prison record which I am going to appy for for only £2. It apparently includes a description of the inmate down to markings etc and of course what they are in for. Hope this helps. |

Court records and or local newspapers. A lot of petty crime resulting inprison sentences did not make the papers. Clive |
