Danish occupation?- completed
« on: Monday 20 July 15 22:22 BST (UK) »
Can understand everything on this record except for her occupation- it's an abbreviation 'Tj.'

Can anyone decipher what it means, please?

Hi aghadowey

I would say a maid: tjenestepige

My Danish isn't the best but it is similar to the Swedish "tjänsteflicka".

Thanks very much for your help. It makes perfect sense that tjenestepige would be abbreviated as it would have been used so often.
