Walton Prison 1911

Post by Blue70 »

Does anyone know of the location, if they exist, of records for Walton Prison? I've had some surprising content on a death record from September 1911. A child death aged 13 hours in Walton Prison. I can only imagine the mother was in there. She was at home on the 1911 census and the next child was born in November 1912 so if so she wasn't in for long.

I've heard this question asked a few times before and nobody appears to have any knowledge of any records, sorry I will make better enquiries on Tuesday at the RO to see if anybody knows any better.

Thanks folks. I've seen similar enquiries over the years and thought they might not have survived.
