Hi Dave,
   Found him James BROWN  entered the force 2nd November 1838 as PC 79. The number was then reissued on 7th April 1844, this will be your man as he was the only James BROWN in the force during the census.
  There was a James BROWN entered the Force on the 19th November 1846 but he had left by 3rd August 1847.
  Hope That helps Davh H

The FS Smith drawing dates from 1882, and can be found in his books.  The public house to the left of the building was the Sculcoates arms and was the only pub in hull with a police station next door.
The photo was taken in 1921 and can be found in the excellent images of england: kingston upon hull, the 2nd selection.  The book is by Paul Gibson and contains fantastic images of hull.
If anyone wishes for images of Hull pubs, inns, hotels, landmarks or streets from the Victorian age to the present please get in touch.

Hope you don't mind me jumping on the bandwagon, but is there any chance you can take a look for my husband's gg grandfather.

He moved around East Yorkshire a bit (from the births of his children) but I assume once given a police number it is yours for life.

He was Henry Hughes ATKIN born 1838 in Elvington, Yorks.
He was a groom in 1857 in York, but not sure if that's linked to the police.
His occupation was given as policeman in :-
1858 - Howden
1859 - New Village
1860 - Hessle
1862 - Cottingham
1864 - Lockington
1867 - Hutton Cranswick
1871 - Scarborough
1873 onwards he was in Hull, but not sure if he was still a policeman

Was it usual to be moved around so much? If his children hadn't had unusual names I would have thought it was more than one man!!

Thank you,
Gill

Hi Sarah,
   He was not really the 100th policeman, but his collar number was 100 ,  The first peson to have collar number 100 was Robert White in Sept 30th 1844, your William Whitelam was about the 8th person to hold that collar number.

Hi

I wonder if you might be able to tell me anything about my gt grandfather George Henry Chapman b1857. I think he joined about 1880 but not sure if it was Hull or from Burton Pidsea where he was born. I know he went through some ranks and have a picture of him in uniform but have yet to obtain much more  detail and am not sure where to look.

Thanks

Hi Jane,

   Yes George Henry Chapman Joined the Hull City Police on Sept 12th 1878 his collar number was PC 193 I dont know when he was promoted but his number was next issued to a John Crisp on Sept 7th 1885 which means he was promoted to Inspector prior to that date I do know that the treasure house Archives in Beverley has all the written details and would be pleased to help, they are very good Hope this helps,

I hope I am doing this correctly. Not sure about all the buttons yet. I would just like to thank you both for this very quick reply. I posted the message before I went to bed and there it was when I woke up. Very impressive. I will now make further enquiries.

Regards

Hi ,Gosh this bandwagon is getting bigger. Could I be cheeky also and ask for a look up ?.
My Great Granpa was a Richard (fendley) Cleveland and when he retired he was a Detective Inspector
I understand he joined the police force in 1900 and his number was 42.
I would love to know if there would be any pics and when he retired ?.
Thanx Rox.
