Occupation Interests / Re: Do you have corkcutter ancestors?
« on: Wednesday 07 October 15 11:45 BST (UK)  »
I was doing some family research recently and came across a cork cutter.  Not knowing anything about them I did a search and came upon this site.  I have found 2 Cork Cutters in the same family.  John Orritt or Orrett born about 1796 in London appears as a Cork Cutter (Master) in 1851 in Gloucester.  His brother Charles born in 1802 appears in the 1851 census as a Cork Cutter in London employing 9 men. I don't know if these are on your list.
