Have you checked the 1911 census and the 1939 register to see what occupation he gives?

A lay preacher was not a full time occupation

They are members of the congregation permitted to preach and preside at some services, but not called to full-time ministry. Anglican lay readers are licensed by the bishop to a particular parish or to the diocese at large
