Title: Look up Harriette Sawyer born Kent 1841 criminal record Brighton Sussex
Post by: johnt96 on Friday 31 May 19 10:27 BST (UK)

I wonder if anybody could help with any criminal registers for Sussex between 1880 and 1900 or where I might locate them?

I'm looking for records for the following person;

Harriette Sawyer (Nee Blackmer)
born Kent 1841
criminal records Brighton Sussex

I've found 3 newspaper references of 1889, 1889 and 1891 mostly drunk and breaking windows and an interesting one for 'A Bathing Impropriety in a state of intoxication on Brighton Beach'

In the newspaper reference she had numerous previous convictions of a similar nature and been to prison several times.

Thanks
John

When did she marry?

Are the records likely to be under Sawyer or Blackmer?
