Anyone done the Ancestry thing and unearthed any interesting stuff? 23:28 - Dec 10 with 1202 views

My Great Grandfather was in a pub with his brother and their cousin. Being drunk, they were asked to leave by the landlord and all refused. So the police were called.

The police attempted to arrest my great grandfathers brother and in attempting to arrest him, my great grandfather and their cousin attempted to 'rescue' him, by throwing the officer to the ground and kicking him. All 3 were arrested and sentenced to 21 days hard labour in Littledean Gaol 1886.

Poll:

Is it more annoying when builders

Great post Churchman. Bonus points for including the names Ebeneezer & Brown in there too :)

Ta. I didn’t think of that! Would you believe the thief ancestor I mention - his first name was Jeremiah! There’s more than one Edward too!

Wish I’d thought about this!
