Prison 1901
« on: Friday 29 April 16 22:17 BST (UK) »
If I wanted to find out someone was in prison in or around 1901 how could/would I go about it? Where is best to look?

Cheers

I can't find him on the 1901 census I can find his family but not him, kinda hitting my head off a brick wall with him.

I shouldn't think he's still alive  ;) so it's OK to post his name on here.

Yes if you post his details, name, age, where born etc, we can have a look for you  :)

Was he a single man in 1901 and have you found a death for him?

I've recently found one of mine who was missing in 1901.  He was overseas in the Second Boer War (1899-1902), have you tried military records?  I only found out as Anc threw up a military clue and I found some fab information once I started down that path.
