Death Sentences – 1890's

This is a list of accused sentenced to death in Britain – this is not a definitive inventory. It is likely that details of the crime were reported in the news. If you can find the name you are searching please make contact by using the enquiry form. I will see if any archive material is available. If you cannot find the person you are searching don’t worry – please enquire anyway. I will do a search and get back to you.

More data relating to the 1890’s will be added here later.
