Help deciphering Job Description
« on: Friday 23 May 25 21:15 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,

Would someone be able to help in identifying what my Great x5 Grandfathers job description was labelled on My Great x5 Grandmothers Death Certificate, he was a Seaman by all records, so I am thinking the first word is "Stoker"

Thank you for your time,
Jake
