Title: Edward Bowerman
Post by: meerkat49 on Saturday 04 September 10 14:04 BST (UK)

I am looking for information regarding Edward Bowerman in connection with a court case in Wellington in March 1897.  The Bristol Times and Mirror ran the piece on 4th March 1897, I do not subscribe to Ancestry so cannot read the item.  I hope someone can help me.  Thanks in advance. Jay (Edward was born in Devon in 1866)

The 4th March one is a report of the charge of alleged perjury at Wellington Police Court of Albert Edward Bowerman in  a case in which Robert Trenchard, a butcher of Wellington and Samuel Trenchard, farmer, brothers were convicted of cruelty to two horses.  The case was dismissed.

The other entry dated 9th March is identical.
