Court and Judicial

Criminal and judicial records provide a fascinating insight into the lives of our ancestors. Finding the criminal record of an ancestor not only provides evidence of the misdemeanour they committed but also often reveals additional information concerning the place where they lived, their occupation and, in some cases, details of their physical appearance.
