Old British News Search And Research 1750-1950

This is a list of accused sentenced to death. The database consists of:

• The name of the accused
• Approximate date of birth (if available)
• The trial date
• Trial place

This is not a definitive list of those facing the death sentence.

If you can (or even cannot) find the name you are searching in my databases please make contact here and I will see which old newspaper articles are available. Your enquiry is free and without obligation. If I manage to find any old news articles matching your enquiry I will let you know. I need some basic brief but crucial detail from you:

• Names of those you are looking for
• The type of event (a murder, a coroners report, a council story)
• When you thought it was in the news (a year will do)
• Where did it take place?

I charge for the supply of the news items only if you decide that you want the material. The newspaper copies are normally scanned and sent to you as soon as possible in PDF format by email. You will need a PDF reader installed to access the material – I recommend the Adobe Reader here.

I only accept payment by PayPal. I will send you my PayPal account email address when we agree. My fees are not high; usually covering the costs involved and my time.

The best way to see the past is to look inside the news. I can search British local, national and international news items published in UK national, regional and local newspapers between the 1800′s to the early 20th century.
