If you use the crowle advertiser and go to the years around 1901 then on your browser use the ( find on this page ) function and enter pc as search criteria their are several police working that area that are named you can then cross reference them to see if any are possibles?

I think as Epworth was the place where most court cases where then it may be likely that that was where the local nick was?

don't get to carried away with some of the stories though as i did :-D

I suspect this might not be possible really. The only remote chance is if she was living next door to one maybe!

Thanks all for your comments. love the crowle advertiser site, haven't seen that before.

Rumour has it my g.g.grandmother had all 3 of her illegit children to the local policeman.... clutching at straws to try to identify him. Might have been based in a nearby village instead of OF.

I thought this was funny
1917 Jan 6th
EPWORTH PETTY SESSIONS
Alfred E Clark, insurance agent, of Misterton, was charged with carrying a camera, and failing to produce a permit, at Owston, on December 5th. Pc Hallam

probably because of the war

Michelle...Given the size of the place I doubt it would run even into double figures if that..it only had a pop of about a 1000 1901 not many more now...probably only had the Village "Bobby"

Wish there was an Occupation search facility, without needing a surname,
Wish to know about Police Officers in Owston Ferry in 1901, 1911.

Any ideas?
