Could it be 'List G/a/1207'?

Compare the 'G' with the one in 'GALLACHER' and 'GORD.'.

My first guess was 'Clerk' and having read through, I see that several others have suggested this.

Good luck with your research!

Not too certain but could the second name have '...WICK' at the end - HAWICK/HOWICK?

Good luck with your research - Lyn S

Not too sure about the first name but could it end in 'ING'?

As for the second name, my vote would be for WATERS.

Good luck with your research - Lyn S

For what it's worth, the last letter in 'Connop' (as suggested by PrueM) certainly looks like the 'p' in 'Thompson'.

Sorry, should have added - 'Mantle Mkr', one who makes mantles for gas-lights!

A long-shot, I know, but could the Daughter possibly have been a 'Mantle Mkr'?

Good luck in your research.

Australia Lookups completed / Re: COMPLETED - Mary Ellen COLLETT born around 1851 in Australia?

Hello Barbara

Many thanks for letting me know about the COLLETT Family Research web page.

There is such a lot of information there to take in - I'll have to spend some time going through it.

With some invaluable help from a Rootschatter, I managed to find out a little more about Mary Ellen COLLETT and her Australian connection. Now, I need to see if there is anything more I can glean from the web page you alerted me to!

Many thanks - kind regards,

Lyn S
