There are confirmed Workhouse register entries for children Mary Ann and Basil (1840-41) then Basil senior in 1843 (two admissions) ....Where??  For Illness?

Is it possible they had Cholera or similar and were "hospitalized" instead of possibly spreading it to others at home??

Basil senior's 1843 admissions were for illness (unspecified)
Basil jr and Mary Ann were brought into the Ratcliffe & Mile End workhouse by police as destitute in 1840 and discharged to Limehouse Establishment on 15 June 1840.  On the 1841 Census they were in the workhouse.

Marshalsea debtor's prison is incorrect as it had already closed, but I can't rule out debt!  Quoting my post but amending it is confusing.

This doesn't come up when searching the newspapers so doesn't have references but if you email the Library via address posted on other snippets and explain this then there is a good chance they will look it up for you!

From marriage registration:
Loughbrickland Presbyterian Church, Aghaderg, Co Down (RD - Banbridge) 21 Sep 1860
William Bell CORDNER, 20, merchant, of Tandragee Co Armagh, father William CORDNER farmer
Eliza Aldwell SANDYS, 19, of Durhamlet (?) Co Roscommon, father Bazil SANDYS excise officer

(Newspaper announcements name Basil's father as Edward son of Squire Sandys, but this must be an error for Edwin)

That is an intriguing snippet.  I feel that I want to offer a prize for anyone who comes up with a witty and original ending.   ;D ;D ;D

I'll do some digging on it.

It definitely places him in Roscommon in the months up to June 1839, which is useful.
