Book Binder in 1881 census
« on: Monday 06 March 06 13:16 GMT (UK) »
Hello,    ??? ???

Can any one please tell me. During the 1881 census, if a child was recorded as a "book binder", would this normally be work for a boy, girl, or either. The age of the child was, in this case 15 yrs.

Many thanks,

F H   :)
