Hi Peter Thanks for your reply. The John in Lincolnshire has been discounted as he killed his wife Sarah so that is not him there were some other details on him that were discovered that did not add up either. As for the one on the electoral roll in Manchester in 1835 I cannot find any evidence that is him either, I think he was a farmer. My John is Carter/Porter labourer! So the search goes on. Many thanks Dianna -----Original Message----- From: Peter Hall via Sent: Saturday, December 5, 2015 12:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [LAN] John BRIERCLIFFE Hello Dianne, There is a John BRIERCLIFFE convicted at Lincoln for manslaughter in 1843. I know it's not Manchester area, but you haven't found him there have you? He was sentenced to 10 years and was sent to the Hulk Warrior in the Thames. He languished there until 1848 when he was pardoned. There is also a J BRIERCLIFFE in the electoral roll for Greenwood Street, Manchester Township in 1835.
