Abraham Barnsley Gun Barrel Manufacturer 1835
« on: Thursday 30 April 20 15:06 BST (UK) »
Hello
Hoping someone can help . Abraham Barnsley was from Straffordshire. He and his family known for Gun Barrel and Gas Tube Manufacturing. But in 1835 something went wrong. I found online a  document sating that on 7/8/1835 at the Court of Relief in Stafford  for insolvent debtors his case was listed . he was also a retailer of beer and Tobacco.

What I dont know is the outcome or how he got into trouble in the first place .  Hoping  you might be able to help .
 many thanks

If you Google,

British Newspapers on line ( I don't subscribe, so can't read the whole article) - think if you register you get 3 free reads...



- and search for Abraham Barnsley

You will see from entries in The Gazette that he was in prison for debt in July 1835
