Mrs Biggs Pedlar 1826
« on: Thursday 28 February 19 07:50 GMT (UK) »
Mrs Biggs was a pedlar from either Stamfordham or Fourstones in 1826. I have been unable to find anything else about her. Can you help please?

Where did you get her name from?  When was she born?  What was her christian name?

There are 6 female Biggs entries on the 1841 for Northumberland who were old enough to have been a pedlar in 1826.  Have you looked at each of those entries?

Thanks for that. I'm in the Newcastle library this afternoon, so will make sure I check all 6.

Mrs Biggs was a witness to a crime in 1826.
