Author: chris scott
Saturday, 07 December 2002 - 06:27 pm |        | I have been doing a research project that involved tracing as many of the police officers involved in the JTR case in the 1881 census. As one person on the boards has already asked for this by e-mail, I thought it might be worth posting so here goes:

many thanks for these - very valuable work
Much appreciated
The one that puzzles me is the Charles Warren one as I thought he was in Africa at time of 1881 census
All the best
