You can order them online I believe.   I also found the marriage of James Randolph to Esther Newman registered March Quarter 1863 Westbury Vol 5a Pg 181.   I find James and Esther in the 1881 UK census at East Town, West Ashton, Wiltshire: James Randolph 39 b.West Ashton Esther 38 John 16 b.East Town [all the children born East Town] Fred 13 Louisa 10 Ellen 7 Fanny 4 Kate 11mths   I find what I believe to be Amelia Randolph in 1861 Wiltshire ~ under Louisa Randolph b.1815. Also in 1861 same place are James Randolph b.1841, William Randolph b.1843 and an Amelia Randolph b.1860.....I can't check the image to see whether these people are all in the same household, but seems likely. Not sure where this Amelia Radolph fits in, but there is a birth for an Amelia Randolph registered Dec Quarter 1855 Westbury Vol 5a Pg 269 ... I find what seems to be this Louisa Randolph still listed in 1871 UK census. Looks like Henry/John Randolph died between 1851 and 1861 census.   In the 1871 UK census there are several James RANDELL/RENDALL at Wiltshire ~ James Randolph was married by this time. Plus a William RANDALL....This seems to fit with the alias in the prison records for Cornelius???   With a bit of luck hunting down info on Cornelius Randolph's siblings, James and William, you might find further info on the parents ~ especially as they seem to have remained in Wiltshire England. I note that James Randolph's eldest son was named "John" ~ possibly after his father who was deceased.   Janice       --- On Sat, 31/12/11, Tony Cocks <[email protected]> wrote: From: Tony Cocks <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [GENMASSACHUSETTS] Cornelius RANDOLPH, Born c1834, Wiltshire, England To: "theclown16" <[email protected]> Cc: "Peter Lodge" <[email protected]>, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, 31, December, 2011, 8:18 AM Hello,   No problems with access to the criminal records........they form part of my Ancestry package.   Thank you for the offer.   Happy New Year.   Tony Cocks From: theclown16 <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: Peter Lodge <[email protected]>; [email protected] Sent: Friday, 30 December 2011, 15:34 Subject: Re: [GENMASSACHUSETTS] Cornelius RANDOLPH, Born c1834, Wiltshire, England I agree with the analysis. Also Corneillous in name shows up rarely so circumstantially he is the son of Henry and Amelia if not only as the son indicated in the 1841 census. aged 7 closer to the date of Christening. The Criminal records in one case indicate he was listed with alias Randell. to Complicate research. Do you have the Criminal Records available online at Ancestry.com ? theclown16
