If we are talking about the Thomas Egan in jail in 1901- he was born circa 1872 in Bradford- according to the 1901 census entry. He is down as married and a general labourer.

The 1891 has him as age 20,single and a masons labourer,born Bradford.

That's what we're trying to find for you David  ;D

Now we have a bit more info(date and place of birth) maybe someone knows where to look for sentencing info?
