Police Officer |
- In Victorian times, Police Officer was not the prestigious job it is now. It was a horrible job and you could get sacked and demoted very easily.
Horrible, because of the conditions they were expected to work under. This is my understanding anyway - I have read the mid 19thC regulations for Roxburghshire in the original and picked up other stuff along the way by reading and general osmosis.
Put out of your mind any idea of a policeman having status and respect. In the early years - the mid 19thC - they were subject to almost impossible regulations, walking around for hours with no food for instance - no nipping into a pie shop for lunch like these days. As far as the upper classes were concerned they were just another
kind of servant.
There may also have been age restrictions as I believe my ancestor knocked a few years off his age to join in the first place.
So my impression in general is that quite a lot of men in around 1840-60 had a bash at being policeman and either got sick of the regulations or got sacked. [12]

- Like several of his Children it looks like Edward also converted to catholicism later in life. It is suprising it's so late as he had already married in St Francis Xaviers in 1873.
