On 13 July 1872 Rose Ellen TUBB was sentenced to 10 months hard labour for forgery at the Wiltshire Assizes sitting at New Sarum. I should be grateful for any further details of her offence.
There is no mention of the assizes in either The Times or the British Library's 19th century newspapers (which covers about 60 titles).
Rose was born in West Dean, Wilts 1845 the daughter of Charles Tubb and Thyrza Andrews who married in West Dean in 1833. On the 1871 census she is shown as a Barmaid at a hotel in Winchester Street, St Edmund, Wilts. She married Surrey and England professional cricketer Henry (Harry) Jupp in 1878 and died in 1884.
