Is this the same John Byrne mentioned in the newspaper below for being "drunk and riotous at Dirty-Lane, Biddulph" ??

15 October 1870
Staffordshire Sentinel and Commercial & General Advertiser


HI.
This is my G.G. Grandfather.
how could i get to see a copy of this newspaper report please?

i am a member of the Newspaper database, but this particular edition from 15th October 1870 does not appear to be on the Database.

thank you in anticipation.

Hi John Byrne from Dirty Lane and Winifred are my Great,Great Grandparents.
they moved to England from Roscommon in Ireland circa 1850 just after they married.
back home in Ireland our surname was spelled BEIRNE, when we arrived in England, it then became BYRNE.
they settled for a time in Congleton, where John worked as a Harm Labourer according to my Great Grandfathers Birth certificate.
they then moved out towards Bidduph/Brindley Ford.
John worked as a Puddler at at the Robert Heath Iron and Coal company at Biddulph Valley, and was followed into this occupation by his SonS.

I would very much like to see this document, as of course it has a sentimental conection, but also, because i am interested in old documents, and have a collection of historic documents myself.

i still live in the area, but i did not see this post untill my friend who lives in Roscommon contacted my and bought it to my attention.

i cant believe i'm reading this!!!!

thank you in anticipation.

Bob Byrne. :o :o :o
