George Tarbox

[Dragoman]

I have come across what appears to be a register page of various trials that took place at the Midland Circuit Spring Assizes, held at Aylesbury, Bucks in 1877. One entry states that a GEORGE TARBOX was found not guilty of rape at his trial on 15th February 1877. I'm researching the Tarbox family history at the moment and want to find out whether this George Tarbox was part of it. Does anyone know whether a full report of the trial exists and, if so, how I could access it?
  Many thanks.

Criminal Assault at Fenny Stratford

"George Tarbox, 20, was charged with feloniously assaulting Catherine Brashier, at Fenny Stratford, on Nov 28 1876.  The Court stopped the case, after the prostecutrix had given her testimony, which was not corroborated, and the prisoner was acquitted."

Thanks very much for this information, Smudwhisk. This eliminates the George Tarbox I'm interested in as he would have been 43 in 1876.
