The Barfoot Family Quarter Sessions

Entries from the calendar of prisoners at Hampshire Quarter Session, generally held in Winchester Castle. Note: I think it quite probable that the calendar has many omissions; I don't know whether this is due to original documents being lost or just inaccurate indexing.
