John Kirnon, tried at Justice Hall, Old Bailey, London, 18 Apr 1787, 7 years. -------------------------------------------------------------- Old Bailey records do not include a John Kirnon, Kearnan or Kearnon, tried on this date. However, there is a record for a John Hearnon, which I suspect refers to this man. Tried at the Old Bailey, 18 April 1787. 378. JOHN HEARNON was indicted for stealing, on the 4th of April, one silk handkerchief, value 3 s. the property of John Lumley. The prosecutor saw the prisoner pick his pocket on Fish-street Hill , and took him in three or four minutes; and saw him drop the handkerchief. GUILTY . Transported for seven years .
