Occupations
« on: Monday 06 March 17 16:53 GMT (UK) »
Hi - can someone help me with a 1841 census for St Saviours Southwark, address Borough Market?  There is an occupation consisting of only two initials.  It looks like J.T. or T J.  The strange thing is it only applies to young women!!

Many thanks
