  • Anyone with better eyesight than me?!!!!

    1841 census living Gnosall, Staffordshire. William Arkenstall with wife Susannah and children. William's occupation is Farmer but above it written very faintly is another word starting BU....

    Can anyone make out what it says?

    Thanks

        Yes, Butcher would make perfect sense, wouldn't it, cos the 2 occupations often went hand in hand. And one of Susannah's daughters from the 1st marriage married a Butcher.

        Problem solved, thank you!
