Hi Robert, 1911 is too late for Ancestry's record, but there was a Henry Gunningham who received 2 months for larceny at Oxford Michaelmas assizes in 1887. I don't know if it could be the same one. regards, Dai On 25/03/2011 21:17, Robert Alun Chick wrote: > 1911 details for: > > GUNNINGHAM, HENRY PRISONER MARRIED M 44 COLLIER BRIDGWATER > > GUNNINGHAM HENRY (RG14PN32131 RD588 SD3 ED34 SN9999) Institution name HIS MAJESTY'S PRISON H.M.

I can't help with what prison records are available but I found that one of my family spent some time in prison in the 19th Century. I managed to find his trial in the 19th Century Newspapers. 1911 is a bit for them so I did a search on the surname in the Times and Guardian but did not find anything between 1901 and 1911. It might be worth checking local newspapers because they always tend to report trials in great detail. Not sure if the same applied but in the earlier period I was told that only sentences up to six months were served in the local prisons.
