 does confectioner make sense

The "ss" like that is often used for "Miss",  you get used to it after a while.

It looks like confectioner to me, but a funny looking "f", never seen one like that in my transcribing.


Cheers

I have put 'perhaps confectioner'  just in case. 

Very grateful for the input - I'm going to look at a map of Kent to see if I have any luck with that one.

Would you believe the place name was  Hunton??

 I actually found I already had her place of birth from other census forms, but hadnt used my noodle enough
