Illegible Occupation - complete thanks
« on: Monday 27 March 06 14:23 BST (UK) »
I can usually have a fair stab at these, but...

Any ideas about the Head of famly (John G VINCENT)'s occupation?

Thanks for your help

In 1871 he's "superannuated head viewer - small arms department"

Perhaps a "viewer" is an inspector?
