But that is based mostly on some conjecture by a family researcher several decades ago, there is little to tie the Richard Talent of Newgate prison with the Richard Tallant of Mr. Carter, or from that one to the three men other than Jack. | |

| Sep 29, 2013 at 7:35 | comment | added | richardtallent | Events 2 and 4 definitely relate to the same case. Event 1 is a different case, but also pick-pocketing. Event 3 is my main concern, and since it is documenting a reprieve for a prior conviction and I can only find one case (the one that events 2 and 4 are referring to), that's my working theory. I'm hoping that when I refer to the actual document for event 3, it will at least mention the crime, date of conviction, etc. that would conclusively tell me if it is the same case as events 2 and 4. | |
| Sep 29, 2013 at 6:20 | comment | added | Colin | How do you know these are all the same person? You say they all relate to Newgate prison but other than your belief do you have any evidence that the 3 different last names in your 4 sources above are the same? They may well be 3 different people. | |
