Title: Occupation for George Blacker please....
Post by: diana2646 on Thursday 18 January 18 18:06 GMT (UK)

Hi,

Could anyone please tell me what the occupation of George Blacker is.  It looks like something Barman/Carman.  First word looks like Laundry but I don't see how that would fit with Barman/Carman.

Thanks, Diana

Look like laundry carman to me.  Guess he collected and delivered laundry.

Laundry carman. As lizdb says, he probably collected and delivered for the laundry.

Especially as his wife is a laundress.
