Thank you, Henry is listed as various types of Labourer so no suprise there! I'm trying to work out if her father's name is listed as James or John since we always believed it was John, but it looks more like James! Since the name of the informant appears to be her sister - I think thats what it says, she would know her dad's name  :)
