Dora Martha Sparling Sadler
« on: Saturday 14 May 22 20:35 BST (UK) »
Dora MS Sadler was convicted of the murder of two children in her care as a nanny.  Like many people I have a Sadler line, is there a quick way of identifying whether there is a link to very famous criminals for peace of mind ?  :'(

According to the Criminal Register she was born in 1887 in London and there is a baptism which may be her
Dora Martha Sadler
Baptism 26 Sep 1887 St Pancras, Camden
Father  George Sadler
Mother Mary Jane Sadler

There is a few trees on Anc that list this Dora Martha Sadler if you have access https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/5019123/person/66830982/facts   Her father is listed as George Christopher Sadler b 1860 St Pancras and his wife Mary Jane Halpin b 1865 Marylebone who was the daughther of James Halphin and Dorothea Sparling which might be where the middle name of Sparling originated

Added - Newspaper report Dundee Courier 5 February 1924  Report on an appeal re the case reports a letter from a man named Halpins who said that Sadler's mother was his sister which ties in with the info I posted above

GRO have a birth registration - September quarter 1886 - Pancras - Dora Martha Sadler, mother's maiden name is Halpin.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
