Occupation of William Howard
« on: Sunday 31 December 17 21:57 GMT (UK) »
My Great Great Grandfather William Howard was born in Ireland c1830, other documents refer to him as being a labourer, but in his sons death certificate of 1890 his occupation is unclear...any ideas?

McKechnie (Ireland, Johnstone, Old Monkland, Bartiebeith, Easterhouse, Auchinloch)
Stewart (Ireland, Johnstone)
Connolly/Connelly (Ireland, Cavan, Cootehill, St Rollox and Townhead Glasgow)
Morrow (Ireland, Enniskillen, Paisley)
Howard (Ireland, Garngad/Garngadhill)
Gamble/Gambell (Ireland, Glasgow)
Carmichael (Manchester, Campsie, New Kilpatrick )
Hendry/Henry (Ireland,Broxburn, Coatbridge Old Monkland)
McLelland (Ireland, Coatbridge, Old Monkland)

Thanks, wondered that too...but earlier reference to Labourer put me off

I can't come up with anything besides Tailer (Master). Perhaps he started out as a tailor but ended up as a labourer; I've worked on a family tree where a man b. Ireland circa 1840 was listed as a tailor, then farmer, and finally labourer as he went through life. Are there any other words beginning with "T" on the page that you can compare with.
