Hereford Gaol 1911 census
« on: Tuesday 21 December 10 22:20 GMT (UK) »
Peter Garner was listed on the 1911 census as being resident in Hereford Gaol.  Inmate? Warder? Working?
He was born in Frodsham, Cheshire in 1874 and was a journeyman bricklayer by trade.
How can I find out:
1. which of the above was he?
2. If an inmate, what crime / sentence was?
3. Where the crime was committed, ie was it local to Frodsham or Hereford or somewhere else entirely?

Advice / guidance would be appreciated

Thank you both for the info.

I guess it will mean a trip down to Hereford some time next year.

Hope you have a great Christmas
