bankruptcy records
« on: Monday 21 September 09 20:07 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find information regarding my Great Grandfather. I know he was made bankrupt, I think about 1910/11. I cannot find him on the 1911 census. I haven't a clue where to start looking for Information about bankruptcies. He was living in Stafford at the time and I believe he spent some time in the Union Workhouse. Any help would be appreciated.
