Trish, my sincerest apologies for any personal offence caused.
I know all about the cause of such offences,both historical and present day.Male I am,unthinking sometimes,brute when required,a child of WW2,when my eyes were opened to the similarity twixt the sexes.

Hello Chrissy

Found this newspaper article for you.
Sarah received the lightest sentence for crime/s done at a time of economic depression and high unemployment with the Industrial Revolution.

"ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
. . .
At Croydon, J. Stevens, J. Lovell, Sarah King and Sarah Whaley, for burglaries."

["The Lincoln, Rutland and Stamford Mercury", Friday, August 2, 1799, p. 3, Issue 3567.]

Sarah Whaley (aka Wheatley) came out to VDL on the same boat, so sweet to know she wasn't alone at such a young age. I'll look up the boys now.

Never be embarrassed about your forebears, no one knows the circumstances of their lives.

Best wishes
Denise
