Which parish?  It may be place of abode within that parish.

Could be a misspelling and shortening of Whaler yeoman ?

Other letters T in the text are crossed which makes me think this may be an L

"I have added some more of it, 1820, male ,town"

It may be a help to add Town/County/Country?

The 'some more' doesn't include the original word i.e can't compare the 'wording' to the sentence as Ruskie has pointed out  ???  ::)

All info. is helpful as researchers need to know certain things for clues  :D
