Can anyone read this Mechanic?
« on: Sunday 09 September 18 16:32 BST (UK) »
Hi all
Can anyone make out what it says after Mechanic (and bracket section) on the 2nd entry down after. I think it says iron something.

Thanks al.

Hi everyone,

Thanks that definitely makes sense as he worked in an iron forge and became a nail cutter later on. I am sure the first word says mechanic too.

Thanks all for your input.
