Ocupation
« on: Thursday 04 October 18 07:43 BST (UK) »
Is it possible for someone to decipher the occupation of Samuel Moseley, in the 1841 census.

I THINK it could be Beeseller, but would like anyone to say if I am right. If I am wrong, don't be afraid to say so, as it is only a guess on my part.

Looks as if he catered for the teetotalers by 1851. He's shown as a milk seller then  ;D

Thank you both for your interest.

In 1847, the baptism of his second son showed him as a "dealer in milk", and the 1861 census has him as a dock labourer, living with his brother.
