Find Ancestors

Hi David,
not seeing anything for 1891.

Could have got a few days if he had been drunk and could not pay the fine. Does say on the census that he is employed. If it was more than a few days, I do not think he would be employed. Pam

hi many thanks to pam for all that info on his convictons he was a nawty boy eh dont want to be a pain but on 1891 census he was in armley prison leeds dont suppose you could find out why many thanks david hullah

Well, I've normally got quite a good memory for things I've looked up but didn't recall that I'd already looked up that newspaper article before!

David, if you've already started a thread about someone it's much better for us if you stick to the same one.

Oh, I forgot about that - I do have a sub. but thank you (off to see what I can dig up!)

FMP have just released criminal records. If you don't have a sub send me a name and I will have a look. Dates available 1770-1934.

Pam, do you mind me asking where you found that? (Could be useful for some of my lot!)

On his criminal record sheet
Convictions:
5 Dec 1899 - 5 years penal servitude for robbery with violence
24 Apr 1895 - 6 months hard labour for aggravated assault
20 Oct 1893 - 6 months hard labour for inflicting bodily harm
Once sent to reformatory ship, seventeen times assaulting police constables, gaming, drunk, &c.

Doesn't help you find him.

Found the two boys in 1911 but not at home

Unless David has found the wife and children in 1901 and Thomas not being at home presumed he is the one in prison

In case it's the same chap:

Yorkshire Evening Post - 5 December 1899

At the Leeds assizes this afternoon, Thomas Egan (28), labourer, was found guilty on a charge of violently assaulting Robert Goodall, at Bradford, on September 27th.
He was committed to penal servitude for five years.

David,
how did you work out he is the one in prison in 1901
