Where to look for trial details
23-11-11, 09:47
Can anyone suggest where to look (preferably on line) for a case of bigamy c1913/14. The man involved was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
Thanks.

Have you tried the Old Bailey Online?
They only go to 1913, but bigamy cases appear on there.
The Proceedings of the Old Bailey

A searchable online edition of the Proceedings of the Old Bailey, 1674-1913.

Thanks Caroline but the offence wasn't in London. Could have been Bury or Liverpool.

Yes that's what I thought too Julie but local paper isn't indexed and we don't know the exact date of trial - there a one year window! That's a lot of microfilm to look at.

This has prompted me to look again at my Bilger/Villiers saga
http://www.familytreeforum.com/showt...light=villiers
No sign at the Old Bailey, but in 1911 Marie Bilger, single, b. Baden-Baden is living in Leyton, managing a tearoom for Miriam Shadwell.
