Hi
I find handwriting on the census returns hard to read at the best of times but this one really has stumped me (and the transcriber by the look of it!). I can see what looks like "embroideress" above and there is a good chance it starts with "New" but otherwise .... completely stumped.
Can any of you lovely people help?
Oh, and by the way, that area was very poor so I am not sure what is meant by her mother being a "land owner". The houses were small terraces and they shared a house. Not exactly affluent ...
OK, 1881 census Source Citation: Class: RG11; Piece: 574; Folio: 75; Page: 45; Line: ; GSU roll: 1341131.
