    Such good quality imagery. Ignore the clothing and look at her face - like it was taken today. Just checked a map for the named streets and it's hard to believe things could be like that there.

    That's what happens when there's no education, limited work and no social safety net. The story reads like Dickens.

    Thank you for including the newspaper reports, which give context to these tragic photos.

    You're very welcome - glad you found them interesting.
  • John Evans said:
    Yet again thankyou for the back story as its always nice to know more of the lives these people had.

Jane Agnes Duffy, arrested for theft

    Very interesting. 'Feeble minded' though - certainly something not said these days! I've noticed how almost every case has someone wanting lodgings and then taking things without consent. I wonder if this was how the majority of criminals committed crimes back then?
