Occupation Interests / Re: Do you have corkcutter ancestors?
« on: Thursday 27 February 14 23:16 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Cheryl, stumbled upon this post after seeing I'm related to some corkcutters! You may well have them in your list already, but just in case...

Joseph Sowerby b. 1791, Yorkshire, living in Shadwell and also his son John Sowerby b 1833 in Shadwell.

The 1861 census seems to list Joseph (age 70) as a cork manufacturer, unless I've misread this. Would this be the same thing?
