I think the one above says "C...... Metropolitan Asylum Board" "Local" scrawled above it... (Clerk maybe?)

and Alfreds is ".....ant Abrams/Abroms? Engine Packing?"

Not sure though, difficult one!

Alfred hasn't appeared on a census since 1861 (as far as I can see) when he was living in lodgings in Norwich and was a printer's apprentice.

It's a complicated household - Sarah is Henry Hester's 3rd wife and Alfred's sister Rosa was his 2nd wife .... and they say families today are complicated!
