Help please!
1851 Census, Parish of Rosemarkie Burgh of Fortrose,
I can read most of the document but I cannot read Christian and Ann Mckenzie`s Occupations!
The other persons in the household are...
Sth Cathederal st, Hugh Mciver, Mason, Rossshire? Rosemarkie.
                             Mary Mciver,  Masons Wife Rossshire? Fortrose? Children..Catherine, Ann, &Daniel

Thanks in advance

Christian is an "Out Servant".  Looks like the first word for Ann is "Object" but not sure of the second.

Agree from first to last!  I can't read the last word either - looks like 'learn' but that isn't right.       

Wonder if it could be loom? 

Or is it clean?  Which doesn't seem to make sense either.   

Did they have looms for making specifit objects I wonder?  In which case could she have worked on one?

I think you might be looking at the wrong entry  (but I think you are correct in your interpretation).   yellingbo is looking for the occupation of Ann Mckenzie  - 7th entry from the top of the page.

So sorry I was looking at the wrong entry too 

Out of interest the occupations are transcribed as

Ort Servant and

Objert Ceam

Do they perhaps appear on any other census with occupations listed?

The transcription that I looked at had the occs as ~

Out Worker  Servant  - **  not sure why I originally typed worker!
Object Learn

[Wiggy]

I wonder what it means then.   

From the other entries it doesn't look as if the enumerator was the type to make jokes.
