Title: Help with occupation
Post by: Oliver Sudden on Saturday 18 November 17 13:23 GMT (UK)

Hello

I am really struggling with the occupation listed between Engineers Labourer and Blast Furnace Filler from the 1901 census. Its the occupation of a 26 yo male probably employed in an iron works.

Thanks

Thanks for that and the welcomes. I would never have got it. I think this man was my grandfathers brother and this might be a big help for me to identify his movements after this time.
