Hi

Hoping for some assistance to determine Samuel Henry's occupations in both 1881 and 1891 as per the attached.

1881 - Tailor, Foreman

1891 - Tailor

Second one is definitely "Tailor foreman". I think the first just says "Tailor" with a flourish at the T.

Sorry Westy I couldn't get at attachments but if he's the one in Tunbridge 1891 is sailor and 1881 tailor foreman

Westy - Did you know if you go to the bottom of the page, underneath Your Tools, you'll find Shrinklink.  If you put in your long link it shrinks it for you to a more manageable link.  So, for instance, your first link to 1881 census becomes

Definitely Tailor.  If you go down his family, you'll see a son who is a Stationery assistant and a daughter who is a Scholar.  Look at the letter S at the beginning of those two words and then compare with the letter at the beginning of Samuel's occupaton.

Not really, I was told how to do that some time ago.  At one time the moderators would shorten long links if you hadn't done it.

Thanks one and all and also Lizzie.  I will look for the Your Tools and do this next time.
