Jeremiah Mallatratt

[ElizabethHerts]

The surname Mallatratt can be spelt in a variety of ways.

Jeremiah was baptised on 16th November 1769 at St Mary, Huntingdon, Huntingdonshire. He is OH's 3x-great-uncle.

He seemed to get himself in a bit of bother! In 1808 he lost the Haycock Inn at Wansford in a game of cards.

He died in 1845 in Shoreditch. In the 1841 Census he can be found in the County Gaol at St Mary Newington, Surrey.

However, I can't find anything about why he was there. Can anyone else find anything.

On the British Newspaper Archive there is an entry for Jeremiah Malatratt in 1842 - Insolvent Debtors' Court. (Morning Post 31 Mar 1842.)

Phoenix -
Defendants: Jeremiah Mallatratt.
JMP
any idea what the JMP stands for underneath Jeremiah Mallaratts name - is it Justice for the Minister of Peace ?

Allan, I think it is Joint Male Plaintiff, but I'll check

[Phoenix]

Found this:
For female plaintiffs acting without any male plaintiff:

SFP (single female plaintiff), indicating one woman submitting a pleading alone
JFP (joint female plaintiff), indicating more than one woman submitting a pleading, though not groups of women, such as abbesses, representing institutions – these are treated as corporate body plaintiffs (see below)

For group plaintiffs:

CBP (corporate body plaintiff), covering abbeys, colleges, companies and other institutions
UBP (unincorporate body plaintiff), covering churchwardens, overseers of the poor and representatives of tenants or copyholders
