I believe that Alexander Wright was arrested in company with my ancestor Benjamin Molloy under the alias of James Connolly. The arrest details appear in the Dublin Morning Register on the 16th May 1837. The occupation of Alexander Wright and James Connolly are the same, they are arrested on the same day and committed the same crime - Stealing leather.
