Gloucester Prison
« on: Thursday 02 November 17 22:06 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

Can anyone help me?

I have a family member who was apparently in Gloucester Prison several times, from approximately 1953. His name was Frederick William Kennaby aka Frederick William Pratt, born in Edmonton in 1907. Not sure exactly what he was in for, but motor theft was his usual form.

Are there any records that would shed further light on his offences/incarcerations?

Many thanks,
Bob.

Welcome to Rootschat.  :)

There might be items in the local newspapers; probably available at the county archives.
