Looks like Ronuk Floor Polisher.

There used to be Ronuk polish in the distant past, don't know if it still exists.!!

Oh Ok. ? But I thought that Alexander is a Ronuk floor polisher? Sorry, can you tell I am pretty new to all this  ::)Oh Just got it .. you are looking at 1901 census. I havn't got that far yet.  ::) Well have looked on the 1901 census to find my G.ma who on this 1911 census record and is listed as 'adopted' I did manage to find her their but not looked up others on the 1901 census. Sorry, will stop waffling now  :-[
