Inverary Jail
« on: Wednesday 18 April 07 10:24 BST (UK) »
I Came across this while searching on Google and thought it may be of intrest to some of my fellow Roots Chatters.
you can search to see if any of your Ancestors have been in the Jail and it also gives what their crime was, and how long they were in prison or deported etc.

All though My Family did not come from these parts i found it absolutely fascinating
