occupations on 1921
« on: Wednesday 01 May 24 16:51 BST (UK) »
I think the lower one might be : Silk Mill,  Worker in Fruit Garden

and the upper one  Silk (but different to lower) foreman........formerly......

The lower one is female and her employer is a silk manufacturer, and her employer's brother is a gardener on his own account.

In 1911 the top one was a cowman.

Best guesses, please.

The top one looks to me like Ill permanently, but I could be wrong...

Edit:
Because of the font here that looks odd. I meant 'ILL' (or 'ill' if you prefer).
Researching among others:
Bartle, Bilton, Bingley, Campbell, Craven, Emmott, Harcourt, Hirst, Kellet(t), Kennedy,
Meaburn, Mennile/Meynell, Metcalf(e), Palliser, Robinson, Rutter, Shipley, Stow, Wilkinson

The occupational code written beside the lower is 103/6
013 denotes gardeners, nurserymen, seedsmen, florists, but I can't yet find what subdivision 6 was.

Like Arthur I think the top entry says ill permanently.

For anyone wanting to look at the original look for Albert Castleman, living in Appleshaw, Andover RD

Permanently ill looks a lot better.  Don't think I have come across that before.  Wonder what money he got.  He died in 1923.

Thanks

Wondering if the silk mill is the one at Whitchurch quite close to Andover? I think it still has interesting gardens.
