I wonder what sort of business partnership a vicar/draper, or draughtman/draper would have?

My profession is a draughtsman ... yes,  I am a female, but in today's politically correct style,  I am a Mechanical Engineering Design Drafter.  My husband and I have, for decades, operated a SBE ... a Small Business Enterprise.   Both of us have living ancient family members  C of E reverends,  and also others who are  Mech Engineers ... designing significant projects across regional Australia.   And on both my husband's and my own family trees we have drapers outfitting English foot regiments and English Navy etc 1700s and 1800s.   But never ever found any vicar/draper business set up, nor draughtsman/draper business. 

The mind boggles at the business plan ....  and the financial reporting ...  Can you hear Admiral Nelson's valet saying ... yes I will keep him waiting while the Reverend conducts the burial but he must have his jacket repaired to give more internal support for his armless stature...

I now have the theme for my January 2021 newsletter.   Many many thanks.

Hello,
I am looking for any information on Alfred James Laughton born 1885 in England and came out to oz.
Married to charlotte BOLT. He is in my wifes family tree. We know precious little about the man, it was also thought that he was an orphan, again we don't know.
any help no matter how small would be appreciated.
Thankyou
Alistair Grassel   

   
I suspect perhaps the wife of Alfred James LAUGHTON was the orphan in your family oral history, Charlotte Ridgeman BOLT.

I have not located a birth for her, but she would appear to be the daughter of a couple William Henry BOLT and his wife Annie Lowden FARRAR. Her death notice in 1942 says she was in her 80th year.

Here is the information from the Biographical Index of South Australians about William Henry BOLT in case it is of interest to you.
