Harry Edward Vickers (3 September 1888 – 9 December 1942) was a cat-burglar who was active in the 1920s and 1930s.
He wore flannel over his shoes to muffle his footsteps, which earned him the nickname Flannelfoot.
His ability to avoid detection and capture by the Metropolitan Police was the subject of media sensation.
Vickers also opened windows by drilling a single hole close to the latch.
She was the 13-year-old daughter of a Reading butcher named Henry Williams, also known as Harry Edward Vickers.
