Prison Commission Records 1770-1951 (over 1,000,000 records)
After-Trial Calendar of Prisoners 1855-1931 (nearly 100,000 records)

Thanks Kite. Found the record of my ex's gt gt grandfather being acquitted of theft in 1844, following evidence of his father and his father-in-law to be. Unfortunately in 1870 he was found guilty of receiving stolen wearing apparel, stolen from Shepherds Bush & spent 5 years in Parkhurst Prison in the Isle of Wight!
