I need a look up in record HO26/20 for November/December 1814. These are the records of admittances to Newgate jail and may carry a description of my relative Cornelius Crawley. He was sentenced to six months imprisonment on 30th November 1814. Sub section 20 carries the records for the full year of 1814, so this information would be at the end of the record. I am in Australia so cannot go and get the record myself. If possible I would like a copy of the entry if there is one and will pay for this. Can you help me?
Many thanks. Christina

Re: War records etc and one states he was Cornelius Crowley alias Cornelius Crawley born in Cork Ireland also wife Elizabeth this one is yours.

Thanks Sophie, I already had this and seeing as age is a definite match am hoping the description will tell me more. I have gone as far as I can on the net as the info I now require is not available online.
