28. ABRAHAM BOULTON and SAMUEL GREEN were indicted for stealing, on the 4th of November, 1 handkerchief, value 1s., the goods of Thomas Thimbleby, from his person.

THOMAS THIMBLEBY . I live in Hatton-garden. On the 4th of November I was passing through Newgate-streets, about twelve o'clock, and felt my coat tail moved—I turned and saw Boulton in custody—my handkerchief was gone from my pocket—I saw Green when I turned round—he

was a short distance before Buolton—this is my handkerchief—it was taken out of Buolton's jacket pocket.

THOMAS HOBBS (police-constable C 85.) I saw the prisoners in Oxford-street about ten o'clock in the morning, and watched them down Holborn to Newgate-street, when I saw Buolton put his hand into the prosecutor's pocket, and take out this handkerchief and put it into his own pocket—Green at the time was holding out his own coat that people should not see what Buolton did—I took them, and took the handkerchief out of his pocket—I asked Buolton, when I took him to prisoner, where he lived—he said, "I do'nt do business so."

Green. I was not in company with this young man—I do not know him—I had my hands in my pockets all the way. Witness. They were talking together all down Holborn, and Green waited at the corner of a court facing the Old Bailey till Buolton, who went down there, came out again.

BUOLTON— GUILTY . Aged 20.

GREEN— GUILTY . Aged 20.

Transported for Seven Years.

Oooh thank you all so very much for taking the time to look this gentleman up.

I am assuming this is the same. When they were deported did they have transport back? I know very little about being transported.

He is back in London by 1846 and married.

I appreciated you answering. Thank you.

Yes, thanks for a nod in the right direction ErikaH. Fortitude was a prison hulk, it didn't sail anywhere! So yes, Samuel would be back in London after his sentence. I had no idea.

I do appreciate information given by all of you.

Thanks Maddie. That is a curve ball. I will have to go further into this. My Samuel, according to my research, was back in London, with a family in 1846. So maybe I need to recheck. Thanks for your time.

When and where did he marry?

MotownGal

MotownGal Report 14 Aug 2019 19:01

A bit sketchy Erika.

My link is his daughter Mary Ann b. 1854. He has two elder daughters, so maybe married between 1845-47. I am working from the 1861 Census for the family living at 4 Chapel Place. Islington. Wife is named as Sarah.

I could be linking a different Samuel, it is a common name.

edit. Logging off for the night. Will not be back on til tomorrow sometime. Thanks.

Oh wow. Thank you so much Maddie and ArgylleGran. As we are told, I am working backwards from Mary Ann. So have no definite details without certificates etc, but this certainly has given me more information to get cracking on.

I shall work on this new info, and see what I can find out, to go further back.

Thank you both once again for your help. Much appreciated.

edit. sorry Maddie did not see you asking about Samuel. I have him as being born 1816, Islington, but no further details.

edit. again, I have misread your post ArgyleGran, I have the Mary Ann etc as the children of Samuel, not James Green. So I don't know if this is wrong now. The dates of birth seems right, but maybe I am up a gum tree!
