1861 Census Occupation
« on: Friday 27 July 18 16:58 BST (UK) »
Hi, was just wondering if anyone could identify what the occupation is listed as from this screenshot of the 1861 census. I'm referring to the top one in the photo.  :)

Hope the image has attached ok!

Household schedule number:   96

Page Number:   16


The important things are just the piece, folio and page numbers
So the reference is RG 9 / 2116/ 63/ 16 (RG 9 is the number for the 1861 census)

Agree with avm and BB 'Innkeeper and proprietor of Houses and land'
