Hi and welcome to Rootschat
What period are we talking about? What christian names and birthyears?
The 1901 census on the PRO website lists the occupations in the end column so you may want to take a look there for further info if you don't know their christian names

Hi
I'm very sorry to hear about your mum. It's at times like this that all the old family stories are reminisced.
Do the names I mentioned ring any bells?
