Could it be "felter"?  Someone who works in the hat industry?  That first letter doesn't look like the "b" in bachelor right beside it.  Just a thought...

Hi KGarrad

HA, YUP I see Butler too but I'm trying to count in or rule out the family that this lady is working on the presumption are hers in later census where the Matthew was a Mason.

Time for the glasses to be updated methinks ~ HA How did I not see that Anne said SISTER !

I'll be honest, I'm not seeing this family as yours ~ but please don't rule them out yet.

To get further though you may have to go sidewards, ie get records for those 'around' the situation to try and get leads for Catherine !

Bear with us ~ we MAY find something yet  ;D

Tara

Sorry, missed that you were looking for the occupation of the bride's and not groom's father.

I missed the name of the church when the marriage cert was shown,have you checked to see if church records on microfim exist for that church though unfortunately a lot of the microfilms have a cut off date circa 1880 the church register would most likely record Matthew's wife's name
