I have found a record in the Criminal Registers for 1855 for George Langshaw (Larceny - bad man!)
It is recorded in the March, Warwickshire Azzizes, he got 6 months if i'm reading it right!
Can anyone help with where I go next? Are there local prison records for that area? etc etc,

You can visit the Warwick Records office (in Warwick, not too far from the castle) and view the records, many of which are held on micro film. I went there a couple of months ago to look at the Prisoner Records of my gt gt grandfather (who committed the crime of Bastardy!) and it gave me quite a few details about my gt gt grandmother etc and I was able to take a photocopy.
You'll need to take some i.d. with you to obtain a Reader's Card - details are on their website

Hello
Sorry to bother you but I am new to all of this... I am currently researching my family tree - surname Shrubsole... For some reason your contact came up under the search, but couldn't find anything relevant on your posts?
Apologies if you were not trying to find Shrubsoles of Wandsworth - my great grandfather was John Spencer Shrubsole.. but if you can help in anyway, I would love to hear from you...
Many thanks

Is this Elizabeth Newbold who married George Langshaw and then Thomas FADDAMAN the daughter of John Newbold and Martha Thompson of Corely?

yes moli it is, "Fiddaman" was her second husbands name. They are direct ancestors of mine.

I am researching the Newbold family of Corley. I have in one of my trees an Amos Newbold whom I assume is related to the Newbolds of Corley. Amos's death was reported by the son-in-law of Henry Newbold, whom we assumed was Amos's brother. Henry, who would have been the brother of Elizabeth, moved to Northumberland along with Amos. I have records and details of the Newbolds once they are in the northeast, but not prior to their appearance there.
I am now attempting to work backwards to their origin in Corley.
Other than Elizabeth, would you happen to have any information on her siblings - specifically Amos, if indeed that was his name and he was her sibling? I cannot find Amos existing before his marriage to Hannah Hawkins in 1836.
Do you have a source for further information on Elizabeth's family?
Regards,
moli
