Hi All,
I am looking for info on Arthur Frank Furr born c1910. He was the first husband of my Grandmother, Dorothy Emily May Cook 1905 - 1970. I believe he was from Hitchin Hertfordshire. In 1933 the couple had their second child, a daughter named Muriel Evelyn Furr. In about August Dorothy had taken their son, Trevor Ainsley Furr 1931- to the circus. Whilst there Arthur apparently MURDERED Muriel who was 7 weeks old. He claims that he dropped her.
I have found newspaper articles dated 29th Aug 1933 and 6th Sept 1933, but nothing for later. I would like to know if he got sentenced, pleaded insanity etc. No one in the family knows what happened to him after the murder and we are now interested to find out. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
