FH Documents and Artefacts / Civil service evidence of age
« on: Friday 29 June 18 11:31 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Could anyone explain why my ancestor might have needed to proof his age.

 I came across this entry (John Knaggs 1864.jpg attached) in Find my Past, Civil service evidence of age, collection some time ago when I had access but failed to realise there was also a page 1 which might have offered more info.

Many Thanks

John
