Title: Priscilla Morris
Post by: yogievans on Saturday 01 June 19 15:57 BST (UK)

Hi,
My paternal great great grandmother was called Priscilla MORRIS. She was born in Narberth in about 1802 - she was baptised in 1812 aged 10 years. I have just found a Haverfordwest court record for 1832 where a Priscilla MORRIS was found not guilty of larceny. Would there be any records detailing the allegations against this person?

Try the Archives Service of Pembrokeshire County Council.

Though being legal, it could well be held at the National Archives, Kew

Thanks to all,

I did not think to use the Newspaper Archive!! I believe there was a second Priscilla MORRIS at the time, but I believe she would have been too young in 1832.

I dare not show my face in public after this. (No smoke without fire)
