Hi.

 

Is this the Derby Gaol...?

 

Calenders of prisoners and Quarter Session records are available at the Derbyshire Record Office New Street Matlock.

Hi, I am researching john waddingham too, he is my great grandfather.  I have just recently found him on the 1881 census at the jail but can find any more but I have just seen the lead from Tuppie.  Did you find any more  at all?
 

This  means I suppose that I am related to you.  Where are you?  John waddingham’s granddaughter is still alive at 92.

 

I would love to hear from you and perhaps find out more about the family.  Best wishes, Pat

As above
