I realise this message is about 9 years too late but I am researching the murder of Woolaston resident William Syms in November 1818.

See www.deanweb.info/history8.html

Willam Burton was hanged for his death at Gloucester in April 1819.
William Hurd was the owner and a member of the trio on the boat that took Syms to his death.
James Ball who married Hurd's widow was the main witness at Burton's trial.
Do you have any information about William Hurd's murder?
