	Thank you so much. I assume the term 'Head Carrier' relates to his later job of coal merchant!!!!????? It a later date,1881 I have found a 'relative' staying with the Gibsons - name of: Harry Hempsted working as coal merchants clerk. can anyone see what the relationship is please ? is it detailed in the 1881 census?
