Hello
Does anyone know if / where I might find records on a Sheriff Officer or Sheriff Officer's Clerk who lived in and around Holborn / Islington from 1840s through to 1862?
Also can anyone point me to a resource that will give me a good description of what a Sheriff's Officer would have done? The best descriptions I have seen are the anti-images by Dickens in Little Dorrit and other novels. Everything so far suggests that they were baliff type figures - am I on the right track?
Thanks in advance
Sue
