Occupation in 1861 Census Abernethy and Kincardine
« on: Friday 04 July 25 15:44 BST (UK) »
What was James Smith’s occupation shown in the 1861 Census for this part of Scotland?

In other sources, he is described as a sawmiller and wood cutter with simply ‘labourer’ on the record of his death in 1871.

I have an idea what the words are but would welcome all thoughts, thank you.
