Prison Records
« on: Thursday 28 February 08 14:32 GMT (UK) »
How do I obtain 1929/1930 prison records?  I am looking for Charles Richard EASTOE.

Charles R. EASTOE may have been incarcerated somewhere in Cornwall.  There is a short article printed August 26, 1930 in the London Gazette that Mr. EASTOE was convicted of the Civil Power and deprived of his rank in July 7, 1930.

We know his partner went to Launceston Cornwall (Pages Cross House) to have their child on July 3, 1930.  We suspect since there was no family, that his partner went to Launceston to be near Charles Eastoe.   How can I get records of Mr. Eastoe's conviction?

Hi Jdowsett

I dont know if you can see prison records for them years, as I found this while looking around.

Correctional Institutions
In the UK, Prison records are closed for 100 years

Hi Ricky:

Thanks for the information.  Do you know anything about getting military records?

Hi jdowsett and welcome to RootsChat !  :)

Looks like you have been looking for this man for some time ! .... what else have you found out about him ? sounds like he was a soldier so I'm wondering if this may be the same man .... my apologies if it isn't !! you may want to try and find out about this soldier ..... may be easier to find the soldier than prison records ! might also be worth posting on our Armed Forces board ....  !!

I checked the Times and the Guardian for reports of the case as well as Black Sheep and Google Books but found nothing.

A lawyer might be able to track down the case in the Law Reports for 1929/30
