The Common Room / Birmingham prison records
« on: Monday 13 November 17 18:20 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone know if prison records for Birmingham from the 1900's can be accessed? I know my great grandfather went to prison while in the army from his army records. I've been told he was in more than once but I can't seem to find anything.
