Angela Buckley reveals how you can track down your criminal
ancestors – assuming they were caught
 All families have skeletons in their genealogical closets and finding a criminal ancestor
adds colour to a family tree; even the most 'respectable' families have secrets lurking
just under the surface. Many factors can drive an individual to commit a crime and, if
your ancestors were struggling to survive, then they may well have strayed over to the
wrong side of the law.
The most common crimes in the 1800s were theft and assault. Other indictable offences
included burglary, breach of the peace and drunkenness. Drink-related crimes were high
due to the widespread availability and excessive consumption of alcohol.
Meticulous Victorian record-keeping makes it possible to track individuals through the
complex criminal justice system. Once you have discovered a family felon, you can follow
their progress through the courts using the criminal records, working through each stage
until you reach a conclusion.
