Hull/Sculcoates police
« on: Wednesday 08 November 06 22:54 GMT (UK) »
Does anybody know if there are any records available for Policemen in the Sculcoates force around 1850 or so.
If I remember correctly it came into being around 1830.
Thanks

Try the following site

www.policehistorysociety.co.uk

Local governent run all police forces in the UK with the exception of the Metropolitian Police which is run by central government. As a result of this, any police records in the Hull area will not be held by the National Achives and are therfore not public documents.

Also the following book maybe of some use.

J Bridgeman/C Emsley, A Guide to the archives of the police forces of England and Wales (Police History Society, 1990).

Hope these links are helpful.

A cousin is one of three generations in Humberside police. Can see if they could help if you get stuck.

The new archives in Beverley has quite a few registers from the Hull police, There was not a Sculcoates Police but the Central Division in Hull covered that area,

If you search for this document it lists each police force under each county and the archives that are held and who to contact.

Hi again,
  I have a book "The policemen of Hull" which lists every officer in the force from May 2nd 1836 when the force was formed and up to 1973 if you wish I can look up dates when sworn in and police collar numbers, just give me a rough date

Dave, can you check for any Carvers - should be one almost immediately post WWII, but would be interested in hearing of any others.

Thanks

Hi Nick,
   I have checked Hull from 1900 to 1973 and found no Carvers, but I have a book about the East Yorkshire Police
and found Eric Carver joined 6th Dec 1948 with a collar number PC 211,  he was the only Carver in East Yorkshire

 Hi dave

Could you look up Samuel Foreman - he was probably in from the beginning until he died aged 42 in 1845 as one of the first inspectors of the force

Thanks a lot

Checked and found him, Samuel FOREMAN, sworn in on 18th April 1837 he was initially PC 77, I dont know how promotion was like in those days but his number was reissued on 11th Oct 1838 indicating that he made inspector in just over a year

Hi,

I hope you don't mind me being cheeky, but would you possibly be kind enough to look up a John Whitlam for me.  On the 1851 census he is listed as a policeman, but on his marriage cert in 1848, I am pretty sure it is says "farmer", and on his sons birth cert in 1852, his occupation is labourer.  So if he was a policeman, it wasn't for very long Smiley

By the way, a huge welcome to Rootschat, and already you have been a huge help Cheesy

Thanks,
Kath

Thanks for that. Eric is the oldest of three generations as mentioned earlier. Still happily enjoying his retirement.
