Salford Prison Look-Up

[Pendlewitch67]

Good afternoon

I have found reference to the imprisonment of Mary Sellers, born 1817 Marple, Cheshire in 1847 Salford.

Any information about this record would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Kind regards
Amanda

Thank you.

It was a bit of a stretch that this was going to be the Mary as I was looking for as little information is available about her.

Thanks.

The FindMyPast index reads "Mary Sellars, born 1817, year 1847.
But looking at the original register the column headed "When received and committed by whom" reads 1874. The pages before and after are headed 1874 also.

There's a Mary Sellars in prison on the 81 Census - age 36, prisoner, occ. charwoman, born Marple - address Hyde Rd, Gorton, Manchester.

The occupation of the Mary Sellars on the 1874/1847? prison register is Charwoman.

FindMyPast has a prison record of a Mary Sellars, born Marple, being committed/sentenced (6 months) in 1879.
