Occupation

[graemelove]

I'm having difficulty reading the occupation next to William. The others all seem to relate to weaving and from http://www.scotsfamily.com/occupations.htm, all I can find that might be close to it is Heddler. Also, I believe the one above to be Framer, but can't see this on the list of occupations, so wondered if anyone agreed or thinks it might be something else.

Thanks.
