Yesterday's Journey's by Michael Spencer

Rogues and Vagabonds


These folks were usually found wandering and begging. Many are single but sometimes families were involved. The majority it would seem came from without the County although obviously there are some totally Derbyshire. When you consider how far some came from you realise why they were called "sturdy beggars". It may be they had reason to visit Derbyshire but never made their goal.
Alongside the Removal order for the Rogue you may find also an Examination regarding their last place of Legal Settlement. The first place is where they were apprehended and the next, where they were removed to. This was to their last Legal Settlement, which was not always the place they were born.
