What was Jarvis' occupation? Very surprised if not railway, probably ganger, lengthman, platelayer etc.

He was a platelayer in the 1911 census.

Hello Matt
I've just seen one of your recent postings with which I have a couple of connections.
My 2nd G. Grandmother is identified as the crossing keeper at Burton Joyce in both the 1861 & 1871 Census records.  Her maiden name was Hannah Severn and she married William Gumbley in 1848.  He was recorded as a railway labourer.
The second possible connection is Ellen Shelton from Stoke Bardolph who married my G.G.Uncle Henry Cordon in 1862.  I believe Ellen was the daughter of John and Catherine.
