Summary[edit]

Description
English: Name: Benjamin McMurdo

Arrested for: Shopbreaking
Arrested at: North Shields Police Station
Arrested on: 17 September 1902
Tyne and Wear Archives ref: DX1388-1-7-Benjamin McMurdo
The Shields Daily Gazette for 18 September 1902 reveals that Benjamin McMurdo was part of a gang of five 15 year old boys charged with breaking and entering into various business premises and stealing property worth between £4 and £5. McMurdo pleaded guilty to six charges. For an image of one of his accomplices, William Balmer see <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/twm_news/16323375917/">www.flickr.com/photos/twm_news/16323375917/</a>.
These images are a selection from an album of photographs of prisoners brought before the North Shields Police Court between 1902 and 1916 in the collection of Tyne & Wear Archives (TWA ref DX1388/1).
This set contains mugshots of boys and girls under the age of 21. This reflects the fact that until 1970 that was the legal age of majority in the UK.
