Please can someone do a look up for me on Ancestry - Criminal Registers 1791 - 1892? I don't have access to it.
In 1891 Census (APRIL 1891) there is a William Brogan age 34 born approx 1857, in Scotland, married, occupation Boot Rivetter, in Wandsworth Prison.
This is not to be confused with another William Brogan on trial in DECEMBER 1891.
If he is in prison, he should be on the Criminal Register, but I don't know how long before APRIL 1891 he was in Wandsworth Prison.
Apologies for jumping on someone else's posting previously.
Thanks
Jackie

On the Ancestry Criminal Registers there is only the William Brogan in the Dec. of 1891. Sorry.

I don't think the Criminal Registers are complete by any means.
