I've been trying for ages to find out about my ggg grandmother who I'd discovered was in Coventry House of Correction on the 1841 census.
I've just found that Ancestry.com have the England and Wales Criminal Registers on line and I found her there, but I wondered if anyone would be kind enough to look up details of her crime and release date (well, anything there is!)
Her name was Martha Paul, born c1807. Her trial date was 29.6.1840
Many many thanks if anyone can help.

Not sure what the crime is..looks like Uttering? Counterfeit Corn
Imprisonment 1 Year

Thank you so much for looking. Could it be 'counterfeit coin'?

ah of course it would be coin.. hadn't had my first coffee

Thank you so much! I thought I'd never find out her crime. When I first discovered her on the 1841 census, she was in the House of Correction with her baby daughter, her two sons were in the workhouse and there was no sign of her husband. Very sad, but it made her one of my more interesting ancestors.
