Can someone lookup a criminal record on Ancestry for me please?

I've sent it.

Do you have access to the Gale newspapers stuff? there's a long article (may be more) Nottinghamshire Guardian (London, England), Friday, January 15, 1869.

Yes, I do have access to that Merry.

I think it says Unlawful Wounding and he got 12 years.

I now have to work out which Thomas Smithson it was. The one I had earmarked for him was with his parents on every census so can't have been imprisoned for 12 years in 1869

The article says he lives with a Mr Spafford for whom he is a 'servant in husbandry'.

[Merry]

The Mr Spafford is Samuel aged 50 b Stoke, Notts in 1861, I think.

[Margaret in Burton]

Yes, I've just found him in 1861 and 1871. Doesn't give an age for Thomas Smithson though. Might not be one of mine.

Thanks for looking Merry.

[Merry]

Might not be one of mine.



I hope not! lol

Oh I don't know, would be interesting at least. :d

I do love that "Nottinghamshire Guardian (London, England)"!

[Uncle John]

London is England, isn't it?

[kiterunner]

Yes, but Nottinghamshire isn't in London!

I agree with Kate. I get very annoyed when Burton upon Trent is put in Derbyshire. It's in Staffordshire.:mad::mad:
