Have you thought about looking at the newspapers for a murder about the right time. If th3 culprit was hanged the case is most likely to have been written about.

wow, thank you!
Ive got most of the information from my mother who was the daughter of Christina Cyster, daughter of Christopher Cyster. she told me the story of the son who was hanged in1888. It seems there may have been some confusion in the story, but you have some information there that looks familiar particularly chalfont st giles and his wifes first married name was Harverson.
Its a pity because my mum is no longer here to ask more,
Thank you for your help, i appreciate it.

What do you mean by 'family'?

i am looking for the family of Christopher Cyster
If ive worked this out properly, he had a son who was hanged for murder in 1888.
He caught a burgular in his house, beat him up and the burgular fell and hit his head.
He then tried to hide the body in a rubbish dump.
Christopher Cyster was married to Ellen susan Cyster. He was born 1850.
