Born in Nottingham Prison

[Carmela]

Hi Knellie,
Now I understand what you did. You checked the same time frame as I would have done given Ellen's pregnancy and the date of William's birth. This is turning out to be a much greater puzzle than I anticipated.
I am glad that you seem to be enjoying the experience
of searching for criminal records. I feel rather guilty about asking someone to do all this work.
It might be fun to find a black sheep of your own  .
I have one, but he never got caught and lived out his life
in comfort, hiding on a Carribean island. It took me a couple of years to track him down, great fun.

Cheers,
Carmela

Hi Carmela

I live in Nottingham but have been too busy to be on Rootschat or go to the archives for quite a while. In the past I have looked up many queries for Rootschat members and solved many puzzles. I am mystified by your query and the fact that it has not been solved. I have read all of the replies but can you summarise names and dates and what you would like to know or find at Nottm archives. I am on annual leave on Friday so I may be able to go for an hour or two.

Hi Jane,
Thank you for the kind offer. Perhaps a fresh set of eyes
is just what we need. I'll send you a PM with details.

Carmela,  I think the person you are looking for is my sister-in-laws family member.  As I was just doing some research for her and her background.  If you would care to reply back to me I could get more info from her.  As she has a birth certificate of this "Stanley" being born in Prison  at that time.
I know the families and where they lived, etc.

Sunshine,
I am in a state of shock . This is fantastic! Beyond my wildest dreams. I'll send you private message as soon as I recover from the shock.

Thank you, so much.

Wow... this is  terrific news.

If you don't mind Carmela could you let us know how this turns out?

Of course, I'll let you know what happens. So many people have been involved in this that I could not leave you all in the dark.
Have sent Sunshine a PM. Await further developements.

Cheers,
