Can anyone help with John's occupation please?
Many thanks in advance :)
-
Coachman I think.

Yes I think Coachman too.
It could be Cashman but I don't think that is an occupation.
I know it is a surname though ;D ;D

Three out of three of us now say coachman. I wonder why I had to send the first message as a personal one? Victor

Are we looking at the box with the circle in it? If so, I agree, Coachman
Or are we looking at occupation of John, the second of the fathers? If so, I think he was a Decorator.
-
Good question, lizd !!
It doesn't actually show the name of the Coachman on my screen ;D ;D
John could be a decorator - certainly the end of the word looks likes that.

John is a decorator I believe.

Sorry for the confusion, I was looking for John's occupation (Bride's Father). Thanks for your help, I think decorator is correct as I've just found a potential census entry for him and it states his occupation as painter :)

The confusion was all ours, at the beginning ;D ;D ;D
Just looked 'front and center' until liz read the question properly ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
