John Davis occupation
« on: Monday 27 February 17 19:14 GMT (UK) »
Would anyone be able to puzzle out John Davis' occupation from this snip of the 1851 Wales census?  He's on the middle line.

Reference is HO107/piece 2473/folio 185/page 13/household schedule number 65, and this was in Carmarthen
Mullingar, Westmeath Ireland: Gilligan/Wall/Meagher/Maher/Gray/O'Hara/Corroon (various spellings)
Bristol: Woodman/James/Derrick
Bristol/Somerset: Saunders/Wilmot
Gloucestershire:Woodman/Mathews/Tandy/Stinchcombe/Marten/Thompson
Wiltshire: Mathews
Carmarthen: Thomas, Lewis
Australia: Mary Lewis, transportee, married Henry Brown - what happened to her?

Mason - journeyman.            Have you checked the 1861 entry?

Thanks Carole

The 1861 for him I haven't found yet - was hoping an occupation might narrow it down at bit!
