I'd say his occupation is joiner...  the first letter looks just like the "J" in John...

I agree with Giggsy and C.L.  The occupation is Joiner. The J is like the J in John Carr.

I was getting a bit confused here!  But as in all 'test' situations, read and reread the question!
WIFE'S father's name is Henry Miles
and WIFE'S father's occupation is miner.

Or am I still confused!

No, you're not confused - Wife's father - Henry Miles, occupation miner.

Oh Dear! My Bad, Anne.

I will write 100 times:

"I must re-read the question and I must scroll down to check for a slider that reveals the whole image."

Apologies for upsetting you, Venelow. Not what was intended at all.
Was meant as a reminder to myself and not a dig at you.
I can be confused enough on my own without any input from others.
Sorry.  :'(.    A
