Occupation Again

[Ewan]

The first occupation of the head of the family is China and Glass ? Dealer, the second one is assisting in the business (wife), the third one (daughter) is assisting in business but does anyone know what the word is after the business for the daughter's occupation.

Many thanks
Ewan

PS  Having a spot of bother attaching this one.

Well it looks like hats but given the nature of the business, could it say 'plates'

The word above and just before 'Glass' looks like an abbreviated Earthw - Earthenware

Thanks Jen, I have an individual on the 1911 census and their occupation is of a close plater.  I think though that this one I am trying to decipher the plate may apply perhaps to a china plate?

Ewan,   where did  they live, they sound very much like my Grandfathers family in Seaforth, Liverpool.

Hello ScouseBoy, Hampshire

I've had a little play with it in my photograph programme and it looks for all the world like flute?

I think what I will have to do is get back to the whole of the image and study the 'p' and 'f' letters to see how they compare.

Good idea. Can you post a slightly bigger section of the document so that we can all have a look at other letters?
