Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Occupation - 1st Floor Man/Cogger?
« on: Tuesday 19 July 22 01:52 BST (UK)  »
Thank you Tony & Kay. I take it that "1st floor man" refers to his senior role "on the floor" of the factory (like a foreman say?)

Wow thanks Kay - that's the one. That was fast and the date is 10 April not 4 April.
There are 2 records on Family Search - the other one says Wilton and this is reproduced on findmypast.
Anyway got it now and you've introduced me to FreeReg which I haven't looked at for many years.
Regards

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Wilton? marriage place in Wortley Reg District
« on: Monday 20 September 21 04:58 BST (UK)  »
I have a FamilySearch record for Stephen Fox m. Elizabeth Crapper at Wilton, Yorkshire on 4 April 1857 (Marriages Jun 1857; Crapper Elizabeth &  Fox Stephen Wortley 9c 183).
At that time he was from Brown Hills lane area, Fulwood, Sheffield she from Stannington.
I cannot find a place called Wilton anywhere around. Can anyone work out where they were married?

Occupation Interests / Sheffield occupation - Siemens
« on: Saturday 27 February 21 03:26 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
I cannot read the attached 1939 register for Albert Christopher's occupation. It looks to be something like "Compo-head rammer? Siemens"
I'm presuming it is an occupation related to the steel industry. Can anyone decipher it for me?

Wow that was quick. I think you are right: Almondbury and before that Thong (but not Upper or Nether)
Thanks
