Mysteries of a Dorney Child Murder and Canal Manslaughter
A late 17th century report details a mother at Dorney near Windsor who murdered her male infant. She mangled the body and hid parts in a hog-tub and a gulley-hole, with the head severed and brains hidden. The jury returned Wilful Murder verdict and she was committed for trial. Additional Northampton events note a canal worker’s death by manslaughter verdict for Henry Holme after a fall in Baddington. An infant, Thomas Alten,Esq of Hinkley, was found dead in Anfly after walking from Mount Sorrel, likely due to an apoplectic cause.
