Catherine Bloomfield, a widow with a prolific criminal record for larceny. Born on 2 June 1839, she was recorded on her record as being a widow with no trade and a mother of one child. She also had numerous aliases throughout her criminal history, known as Elizabeth Montague and Emily Bloomfield. While serving one of her many sentences it was noted she had suffered some kind of mania and was incoherent and refusing to eat. However, Catherine was also known to deceive the wardens and other prisoners. On a few occasions she ended up in closed confinement due to being abusive. On her record, this slight built woman was reported by the Superintendent of the prison to be very violent in the infirmary and abusive towards the medical officer. Catherine through her prison records proves to be an unpopular character within the prisons she served in. Her criminal history spans from approximately 1865 through to 1883. #oldphoto #victorian #instaart #storytelling #murder #prison #stealing #bloomfield #criminal #history #crime #truecrimetuesday #truecrime #millbankprison #ancestors #photocolorization #colorizedphoto #pastlife #ancestors #genealogy #colouryourmemories #sentence #colourrestoration #historyincolour #historyinthemaking #historyinpictures #photorestoration #familyhistory #historyphotographed #pauper #lostsoul (at Millbank Prison)

In Memory of Edward James Weeks 1852-1910 Poison and an Imaginary Heiress. Edward was born into a family of poor farm labourers at High Littleton, Somerset in 1852. In 1889 he was hospitalised after an accident but was sent away as his behaviour upset the other patients on the ward. Three months later the doctor was called to his home. Edward had become restless and unmanageable; he imagined “that snakes had taken abode in his entrails” and that he had been poisoned. He talked about hoping to marry an heiress but had been sent away, only to find on his return that the wealthy lady had married in his absence. Talk of this made him tearful and distressed and would occupy his mind for the rest of his life. After spending some years at an #Asylum in #Exeter, Edward was transferred to the #Wells Asylum in July 1897. He still complained of having poison in him but was happy to work washing potatoes as long as he wasn’t interfered with. If crossed, he became tearful and incoherent, occasionally lashing out the other patients in the work party. Edward still seemed to live in hope that his heiress would arrive to marry him. Still complaining of the poison inside him, by the autumn of 1910 he was observed to be “wandering about with sunken head, looking very miserable”. At the beginning of November he became very ill and was put to bed in the hospital ward, where he died on the 7th November, aged 58. A post mortem examination revealed that he had died of Chronic Renal Disease. Edward James Weeks was buried in unmarked grave 19, Section F, Mendip Hospital Cemetery, on the 11th November 1910.

In Memory of William James - A Soldier Remembered.

William was born at Upton Noble Somerset in 1876, the son of a farm labourer. Tempted, like many poor boys, by the glamour of the military he joined the army, and was posted to South Africa to fight for his country in the 2nd Boer War (1899-1902). This dreadful war took its toll on William’s mind and he experienced total mental breakdown at the beginning of 1903. He was sent back to England, first to the military’s own #Netley Hospital in #Hampshire, and then to the Wells Lunatic Asylum in September that year. William James never recovered and had to be watched - if unchecked he would eat pieces of coal, or stones, “for my own good and for the world’s good”. In 1910 he was taken ill with gastritis and died of heart failure on May 31st, aged 34. A post-mortem was conducted and a piece of waterproof sheeting, 23 inches x 2 inches, was found in his stomach.

Buried in the cemetery on May 31st 1910, in grave number 3 in section F, though like so many other graves here, the exact spot is yet to be pinpointed.

This cemetery was the burial ground for the Somerset and #Bath Pauper Lunatic Asylum, later known as the Wells Mental Hospital, and later still, Mendip Hospital. Here nearly 3000 former patients and staff were laid to rest between 1874 and 1963. The cemetery is now both a nature reserve and a living memorial to the poor souls buried here.

Stepping back in time to 1907, poverty poster of the Salvation Army. What began as a family mission in East London in 1865 with soup kitchens and “Food for the Millions” shops spread to become a worldwide organisation. By the time of William Booth’s death in 1912, the Salvation Army laboured in 58 countries; today it works in 109. #salvationarmy #poverty #history #1907 #poster #soupkitchen #williambooth #photocolorization #vintage #bringingbacktolife #beforeandafter #pastlife #ancestors #genealogy #timetravel #colouryourmemories #blackandwhitephotography #blackandwhite #colour #colourrestoration #historyincolour #historyinthemaking #historyinpictures #photorestoration #backintheday #familyhistory #historyphotographed #colourizedphoto #socialhistory #mycolorfulpast (at Worldwide Action)
