Hi Annie, no further forward re her ID but received this from LHS.
“I have found Elizabeth Crowther in the 1841 census and she is indeed aged 10 and an inmate at the house of correction. I attach the census extract. Her name appears about half way down the right column. You can also see the names of prison officers in the left column.
I have regional prison inspectors' reports for 1840 and 1842 - there was no inspection in 1841. These give a great deal of information about the nature of the prison at the time but do not give rolls of prisoner names. There are surgeon and chaplain reports which mention individual inmates with noteworthy issues. In this era the inmates in question are identified by their initials, but I can see nothing in respect of E.C.
In an inspector's listing of 1845 there is a reference to Elizabeth C, age 16, single, committed on 31 Oct 1845 for stealing 1 sovereign. Her instruction (presumably meaning education) is described as 'imperfect'. There is a slight discrepancy with the age, but this could be the same person, and if so she would be a repeat offender.
I have little else to look at. Depending on what you want to know, I have a considerable amount of information about the nature of the prison in this era including, diet, architecture, the Silence System etc. Please let me know.
