Frederick
Hudgell was aged 17 when along with Joseph Hall he was
charged with burglary from the house of Alice French and
stealing 2 bushels of apples worth 20 shillings.
He served 6 months
imprisonment with hard labour for this.
Three years later in 1840 he married Caroline
Neville and had 2 children, he was not charged with any further
crimes. It seems like this is the only touch with crime that
Frederick has and after his initial stealing he never crossed with
the law again. |
