Hi,
intrigued by this as I have a few Aaron Roberts in one of my trees, all in Ruardean Hill/Drybook area, but don't recall seeing this story before.

Please do you have any more info about it ?. Which paper was it reported in ?

Looking at this site's PRs I'm guessing this is the death you mention ?

I see quite a few Thomas Phips/Phipps in this site's PRs database, have you searched them ?
Many PHIPPS PRs are in Aston Ingham area, so right on the border with Herefordshire, and not far from Drybrook. Looking at the Thos Phipps PRS, quite a few in Ross on Wye area.

Any idea of the age etc of your Thomas Phipps ?

Where did the offence take place ?- I've searched the Welsh Newspapers site but no sign of this yet event, those papers often covered events in the Dean.
