Help with reading 1851 census please
« on: Tuesday 29 April 08 22:31 BST (UK) »
Hi,

1851 Essex St James Colchester H0 107 1781
First Line

Mary Waits aged 36 years wife married silk winder pob I think is Portsmouth? However if you look at the image further down the enumerator has written a different style "P" for a pauper. 

He also has entered something before place of birth,  could anyone help me with what he has written please?

Many thanks
